Hike This hike was amazing. It had a bit of everything. I loved the 360 views from the top. Fair warning though; Antelope Island can be crappy with bugs and smell during fairer weather. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/frary-peak-trail–2 Drink Wasatch Brewery’s Blueberry Hef. One of my favorite beers. The blueberry mellows out an already easy drinking hef. I […]
Hike Grandeur Peak is one of the first big peaks I hiked. This was actually my third time up. It offers probably the most bang for your buck as far as hikes and views go along the Wasatch Front. But what do I know? I have only been doing this for a few months. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/grandeur-peak-east-trail-from-church-fork
Hike Went back up to the Desolation Trail this time and actually made it to the SLC Overlook. I remember drinking a beer on this hike, but apparently I did not take a picture of it. Cut me some slack. I was new to hiking and drinking. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/desolation-trail-to-salt-lake-overlook

Hike The “Living Room” is a SLC hike staple. Everyone who hikes in SLC has done it. It’s short. It’s close. There’s a great view of the valley. And best part? There are several couches! I’ll take a picture of the “Living Room” next time I am up there. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/the-living-room-lookout-trail Drink La Belle Peche from
Hike I hiked this trail when I used to live close by as a young teenager. New Years. My buddy and me. Almost froze to death. True story. Anyways, great trail with beautiful fall colors. It is not very steep but decent distance and nice views. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/utah/big-rock-via-elephant-rock-trail
Hike (I attempted to do) I tried to take a quick hike up the Desolation Trail to the SLC Overlook from the Millcreek side. I have done this hike before so I didn’t bother to look it up. Somewhere I missed a turn and meandered through a canyon instead. Oh well, I still enjoyed it.

Squatters is probably one of the most well known Utah breweries. Its brewpub located in downtown Salt Lake City has been there since before I ever tasted a beer. I remember being astonished and intrigued in my teenage years that Utah had a brewery. I have been there a few times since. One of these
Epic Brewing is one of my favorite places to grab cold, delicious, high point beer. Located just a few blocks south of downtown SLC, it is super accessible. I would often swing by after class up at the University of Utah. That being said, I realized I have not taken an Epic Brew with me

I have been drinking Uinta brews for as long as I have been drinking. One of the older breweries in Utah. Surprisingly, I have only been to their Brewhouse Pub a couple times. I love their relatively new Mango Lime Pilsner in the summer. In the winter I prefer their seasonal Yard Sale Winter Lager.
Wasatch Brewery is home to my favorite beer, their Apricot Hefeweizen. I have had most of their beers. There beers are everywhere in Utah. Which is great because they make good beer. I have been to their Sugarhouse Brewpub a couple times and the West Side Tavern is one of my favorite places to get
