On the way from Ogden to Provo, Jeffrey told me about a hike he had done about nine years earlier to a famous church history monument at Ensign Peak. Though I have heard about Ensign Peak, I had actually never hiked up there. As a child our family had gone to 'This is the place monument" quite a few times. I didn't realize that when President Young said those famous words, he was lookin at Ensign Peak and then the valley and identifying it from a dream he had had. So, "this is the place", is actually Ensign Peak.
Jeffrey and I decided to hike up there on our way back from Provo to Ogden. It was a perfect day for a hike as the floating clouds and breeze kept the heat away.

| I was fascinated with these trees as they look like oak but are as big as bushes. I looked it up on google and it is called scrub oak though it's real name is Gamble Oak and is found all over Utah except in the North of Utah |

| The view of the valley was amazing! |
