If you haven’t taken your family to a mountain pool party yet, I highly recommend adding this one to your summer bucket list! We had so much fun at Snowpine Lodge’s @snowpinelodge pool party, it was a great way to escape the heat and have a fun summer day surrounded by beautiful mountain views! My son had a blast and is already asking to come back next summer! 🍕👙

I started this hike around 7:30 a.m. to beat the heat, and it was perfect, almost a little chilly! Since there's very little shade on the trail, I definitely recommend an early start. I saw a huge marmot, a deer, so many pikas, chipmunks and birds. 

White Pine Lake is such an underrated hike in Little Cottonwood Canyon compared to the popular Red Pine Lake. The mountain views are absolutely gorgeous, and the wildflowers are putting on a show right now.

One of my favorite quick hikes in Salt Lake City! It's short, family-friendly, and rewards you with amazing views of the entire city and surrounding mountains. 

This hike is beautiful any time of day, but my favorite time to visit is definitely sunset when the temperatures are cooler and the golden glow over the city is incredible.
