Photos from the Trek...

Here are some of the photos taken during the Trek.  It is very common for youth in the church in the US to go on one of these "treks" to give them an idea of the challenges the pioneers went through crossing the plains to come to the Utah valley.  Since many of the missionaries in Linnea's mission are from other countries the mission president and his wife thought it would be a good experience for the missionaries in the mission.  Linnea said it was an amazing experience.  The missionaries from other countries all carried the flags of their own country.

Some of the beautiful Utah fall foliage.

Linnea and opponent playing the "stick" game.

Linnea looking a little exhausted after the trek...I don't think she wanted to be photographed!

Pulling the handcart up a steep hill.

Looking a little happier.
