Cecret Lake Field Trip

Yesterday, I took all my 7th graders (yes all 70 of them) on a field trip up Albion Basin by Alta. We did a 4 mile hike to Cecret Lake! It was beautiful. I am so lucky I had Anthony go with me to help push me up the mountain! It wasn't too bad, even though I have felt like CRAP lately. I had enough energy to keep up with them and we had a great time. Only one student fell in the lake and he didn't really mind. I would have taken more pictures, but I didn't know if it was illegal to take pictures of students, so I just opted out.

We had about 7 parents volunteer to come and 4 teachers. I have been stressing about it for about a month and I have no clue what I was stressed about. It was awesome. The kids loved it and it was a free day out of the classroom.

We are reading Call of the Wild by Jack London, so that was the reason for the field trip. Get them into the wild and exploring! I don't think they understood that concept, but it was fun none the less.

I am SOOOOO sore today. My sides hurt and my thighs ACHE, but it was beautiful and I am so glad I went. It made me sad that we aren't going to be in Utah much longer and I haven't done any hiking in Utah.
