Just A Little Water

Time to head up American Fork canyon and visit Cascade Springs. If you've never been, Cascade Springs is just what is says - a spring of water, cascading down rock.  Being a spring, the water just appears out of the rock and the flows down creating ponds and marshes.  There are boardwalk paths all over and it's a really nice leisurely walk/hike around.

Every day, 7,000,000 gallons of fresh spring water flow to the surface.....24/7....even during the winter.  It's amazing seeing all that water just appear out of nowhere.

On the way to the springs, we passed so many awesome views of the mountains and valleys.



Jacob thought he could get a good panoramic pic from standing on the car

Jacob had his friend from California, Trent, visiting us.




This is where the water starts

And eventually becomes a small river


Afterwards, we met Meghan & Corey, and Matt & Marissa for a campfire and smores in the canyon
