June snow--saving girl's camp

We had the cabin the week starting the Monday after Father's Day, which was on June 16th.  We invited the family to the cabin on Monday night to celebrate this occasion and had quite a few people there and some staying over until the next morning.  Lots of fun!!!

A very cold storm front came through on Tuesday.  We had a good rain at the cabin and at just a little higher elevation there was snow.  Lots of youth groups were camping at higher elevations that got really wet and cold.  We got a phone call from Shannon, Wendy's sister, mid-afternoon.  She was one of the stake ladies help with their stake girls camp.  The were camped somewhere in the vicinity of the Heber Valley Camp in tents.  There had had snow, and their girls were wet and miserable. She asked if they could come down to the cabin.  We agreed and when they arrived several hours later, they sure were a sad-looking bunch.  We came home and left them the use of the cabin. with the hope that something of the camp could be salvaged.

Our mountains around Utah Valley got a fresh blanket of snow from about the 8000 foot level on up.  The pictures are of Spanish Fork  Peak (Maple Mt.) and Mt. Loafer when the sun started to come out again Wednesday evening and of Timp from the Provo temple on Thursday.

We noted that this quick deep storm raised lots of havoc in the midwest and south as it continued across the continent--many destructive tornados, etc.  We are grateful that we only got some snow on our campers.
