Hike I have done part of this hike before in the winter, but I did not go up very far (see here). I want to do the full trail that is about twice as long and tall. I was not planning on hiking this one today, but my other plans fell through so I just […]

Hike This was a mashup of two hikes. I was originally planning on doing just the Secret Lake and Sugarloaf Mountain loop (first link), but it cost $6 to park up there so I started at the bottom of the Albion Basin (second link). I ain’t afraid of an extra few miles, especially through a

Hike Just one picture of the short little hike up Big Cottonwood Canyon. Kiddos love this hike. It is short and easy with a nifty waterfall at the end. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/donut-falls-trail Drink No beer. I went with children and it was morning. I like beer. I’m not an alcoholic. Sheesh.

Hike Here is another adventure with multiple hikes. I will just link to the park’s hiking list. On the first day I got there a bit late so I just did the Grand Wash and Cassidy Arch. On the second day I did Navajo Knobs and Hickman Bridge. All in all I hiked probably about

Hike The time has come. I finally bagged Mount Olympus. I know there are people that run up and down it all day, but it was a big feat for me. This is one of the big peaks overlooking Salt Lake City. And it is no joke. 4100′ elevation gain destroyed my legs. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/mount-olympus-trail Drink
Hike This hike kicked my butt. I have been up to Grandeur Peak via the Church Fork route. This way, though shorter, was soooo much steeper. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/grandeur-peak-trail-west-face Drink More Apricot Hefeweizen from Wasatch Brewery. Good stuff, especially after beating myself up. https://www.wasatchbeers.com/beers.aspx
