| 2023-10-19 | Hike | MODERATE HIKE - MORMON PIONEER TRAIL | MODERATE HIKE - MORMON PIONEER TRAIL Thursday, October 19 -10:00am Moderate hike on the Mormon Pioneer trail 10:00 Mormon Flat Trail Head Follow the trail blazed by the ill-fated Donner Party and a year later led Mormon pioneers to the Salt Lake Valley. We’ll recreate their journey by traveling from Mormon Flat to the Big Mountain Pass. This will be an approximate 9.5 mile hike, OUT and BACK. Estimated time is 4.5 to 5 hours. The somewhat rocky trail is a gradual uphill climb. There are sections of dry creek bed as well as some small stream crossings. Long pants highly recommended since much of the trail has high grasses on the sides. Hopefully, fall colors will continue through next week. Mountain Dell Canyon is a protected watershed so NO DOGS on this trip. Important note: The Mormon Flat trailhead is reached off of Jeremy Ranch Road which becomes a hard packed, mildly rutted dirt road. This hike can also be a one way if you leave a shuttle vehicle at Big Mountain Pass, but the logistics would be your responsibility. Please call or text (773-816-4627) if you plan on participating in this hike. If you would like to take this hike but don’t think your vehicle can take the relatively small ruts on Jeremy Ranch Road, I can take up to three people in my truck. This is a Utah State Park so a Pass or $5 fee applies. Bring a snack or lunch for our break at Big Mountain Pass. As in my past hike, a plum clafouti will be served at the end of the hike.

| 2020-09-23 | Hike | MODERATE HIKE - BONANZA FLATS CONSERVATION AREA TO SILVER LAKE ISLET AND SILVER LAKE | Moderate Hike - 4 Lakes - Around a portion of the Bonanza Flat’s Li’l Joe’s Trail to the trail to Silver Lake Islet, past an un-named lake, to Silver Lake Islet, past Lake Brimhall and Camp Cloud Rim (the girl scout camp) in the distance to Silver Lake then back for lunch and refreshments. 9:30am - 1:00pm. We will meet 80 yards down Pine Canyon Dr (towards Midway) from the junction of 224, Guardsman’s Pass Rd and Pine Canyon Dr. There is plenty of parking along the road. Please be ready for an on time departure at 9:30am. Look for our old Red Ford Expedition. Our access for this hike and the lunch area has been approved by Utah Open Lands, no matter what old signs say along the trails. This will be a 4.36 mile hike (we are looking to extend the distance with more of the Bonanza Flats trails, update to come for those with RSVPs) with 750 feet of elevation gain. We will hike along the old dirt roads of Bonanza Flats Conservation Area to an infrequently used but maintained trail, across 2 creeks, past an un-named lake, to Silver Lake Islet and continue on to Silver Lake. We will see Lake Brimhall and Camp Cloud Rim. We will not enter girl scout land. If you occasionally hike with sticks this would be a good trail for those sticks for the short steep areas, up and down, and if you occasionally hike in long pants or leggings there are over grown areas we will pass. It is an infrequently used, quiet, but beautiful trail. We will stop for a socially distanced lunch at the end among one of the oldest Aspen stands in Utah. We had hoped that the Aspens would be turning yellow, but the hard freeze has killed the leaves and the trees are brown. The lunch area was significantly damaged with downed Aspens with the winds the past few days and may not be available to us. But in the same area is another lunch spot with seating, etc. that is available to us for sure. When we finish the cars will be very close by if you want to leave your lunch in your cooler in your vehicle.

| 2020-07-13 | Hike | MODERATE PLUS HIKE TO LOFTY LAKES LOOP WITH AN ADD ON TO CUBERANT LAKE, UNITA'S | Monday, July 13th Moderate plus hike to Lofty Lakes Loop with an add on to Cuberant Lake in the Uinta’s
We will meet at Quinn’s Junction for an on-time departure of 7:30am as this trailhead can get crowded.

Lofty Lakes is a very popular trail due to the relative ease and the abundance of lakes along the way. The Cuberant offshoot trail is much less traveled adding a little over 3m. As with any high-altitude hike in the Uinta’s we must start early in the day to beat the possible afternoon thunderstorms, the afternoon heat, and crowded TH parking. Bring lunch, the hiking essentials, plenty of water, sunscreen and definitely bug spray and you may even want a face netting. The hike, including the drive to TH should take about 6+ hours and we will have lunch stop at Cuberant Lake. Dogs are welcome but it may be tough for some due to rocky sections.
Cell service is nonexistent.

The trail is well maintained and requires no special skills, however if you experience acrophobia, the approach to the summit will probably be challenging.
