Sunday Morning Hiking Series #23 - Corner
Canyon
8am-12pm
Series Description
For those new to this hiking series, these are social hikes
around the Salt Lake area for the purpose of caching, enjoying the
outdoors, and getting to know fellow cachers. There tends to be a
range of fitness levels that show up for the hikes. As the emphasis
is on being social, don't worry if a steep leaves you puffing. I'll
be right there clinging to a tree and puffing with you. Our usual
meeting time is 8am, and we leave the parking area by 8:05am. The
other primary feature of these hikes is that they are short and can
be accomplished by noon. Trails tend to be a little emptier on
Sunday mornings and we'll be done in time for anyone who has Sunday
obligations to attend an afternoon service. If you don't have to be
anywhere in the afternoon, there's frequently a longer trail to
take. If you would like more information about the whole series of
hikes, check out the others in the series in the bookmark list at
the right.
Description for this Hike
We have started from this trailhead before. On that occasion
(May 2010) we went north. This time we will be heading south. Again
there will be the initial climb up to the BST, then it's a pretty
mellow trail. Once in the canyon we will do a loop around it, but
we will exit on the same trail we come in on, which means we will
have to descend back to the cars. There is much to do and see along
this trail. Because of that, more so than the distance of the hike,
we may run long this time. Anyone who needs to turn back early is
welcome to do so.
Unlike the trail to the north this trail is actually an
off-leash test area. So not only can fido come he can romp off
leash!
Thanks to GOATTER and daphm for this suggestion.
Come on out and have some fun hiking and caching with
the Seventh Day Adventurists! Make a Sunday morning caching hike
part of your month! Cache you there!
