It has been a really long time since I posted here on BCP. I finally have gotten some of my passion for hiking back and since I now live near the mouth of Little Cottonwood Canyon I have been getting out, exploring some of the local trails. My goto is Bell Canyon for getting some excercise and...

It was fun seeing you two enjoying our backyard. You inspire me to get back on the trails.

Great job! I think you had the perfect storm with heat, bushwhacking, and low water supply. I think you should think of this trip as reconnaissance for another day. This seems to be the norm for me anywhere up in the Wasatch as I rarely get as far as I thought I might.

I'm sure this is an easy one but a new place for me to visit recently...

Strawberry Reservior?

Slippery leaves?

Thanks for the info @Ugly! The crowds in Henry's Fork Basin are definitely a concern and was hoping someone could point me away from the problematic locations. I like the suggestion of Blanchard and Cliff lakes being a little higher. Are there good places to camp in that area? Originally I...

I'm going to be taking Cyndie on her second backpacking trip this weekend. Its going to be a three day, two night going from China Meadows TH, up past Lake Hessie and into the Henry Fork Basin. Looking for some suggestions for good camp sites in the basin. She loves waterfalls so that could...

Oh my gosh! A lot of beautiful pictures and amazing subjects! I’m drooling

Nice little mushroom forest in the pine forest the other night in Little Cottonwood Canyon…

Actually she seems to be more of an early riser than I am. She was raring to go by the time I got out of my sleeping bag. But, she was surprised none the less. Thanks.

Thank you. Once we tie the knot I’ll be living in Sandy so maybe we can catch up on some local hikes.

Nope. Just engaged. The wedding will be coming in the next 2-3 weeks. Thank you so much!

Clyde Lake Loop yesterday and hopped off trail at Clyde Lake to Three Lakes Divide. Rained just a bit but it was very nice in the tent. Got up this morning after sleeping in a bit. We took our MH Granola with Blueberries down to the middle lake to eat breakfast. We soaked our feet for a while...

No water from East Park reservoir until Hacking Lake. There is a small creek that maybe dry this year about a half mile south of the Highline or you have to drop down to Leona Spring which is a pretty big drop in elevation but the water is really good. My advice is just be prepared to carry a...

Welcome @long4trails! Looking forward to having you in the Highline Trail club... and a trip report :)

I would love to head for Reader Lakes. Been there a couple of times and both times saw moose as you noted. That drive though :(. The Clyde Lake Loop is looking better and better.

Oh man! I gotta get out. Haven't been up there this year yet. Thanks for the additional inspiration.

Thank you! That’s awesome! Thanks for that!

Arrrrrgh! I just checked the weather for next week… supposed to rain all week :confused:
