Into the mountains

Knowing we had 24 hours of rain coming, we took advantage of a chilly Saturday to head up the stunning Provo Canyon and then on to the Alpine Loop Scenic Byway, around the 6,000 ft. Mt. Timpanogos. First stop: Bridal Veil Falls, a 607 ft. double cataract waterfall with just turning leaves on both sides
Second stop: Robert Redford's very rustic Sundance Resort. We wondered why there were so many visitors until we saw it was the annual Harvest Market complete with music, food, and this friendly barn owl. The General Store was most disappointing! The catalog is much better!
Glad to make it home just as the rain was starting.
