Scout Cave Trail St George Ut
Pictures and links for a day hike along the Scout Cave Trail in St. George, UT
Overview
Each hike can teach us something. Today’s hike reinforced a lesson learned many times: Strangers met on the mountains can be a wonderful gift if you will interact with them. Today’s strangers included Judy and Jill, with whom we had some great photo shoot moments. I hope you enjoy the pictures in today’s post!
Another interesting fortuitous occurrence happened when I asked them a question about this blog site.”Hey,” I said, “I’m putting together a site where I post pictures and maps from the hike today. If I had a QR code on my phone which you could scan, and then see the post in a couple of days, would that be cool?” I was surprised at how easily they agreed to the idea and how interested they said they would be to have a quick way to get linked to it. I thought folks would be leery of being posted. I guess if your picture ends up on a stranger’s blog site, but with no way to tie it back to any PII that identifies you, then people are even a bit excited to appear in cameo.

Monday Day Hike on Scout Cave Trail
Today’s hike was almost five hours long, and almost six miles. Not too hot yet, it was in the high seventies. We did get a bit of a blow. The videos we took on the way back from the cave have quite a bit of thunder to them.
