Scat I don't know that trail, interesting. There's quite a bit going on on the south slopes of that ridge. The other year a went up to Lookout from Affleck Park and then we continued walking west and then south along that ridge, eventually crossing some spots that you and I walked on that epic Red Butte rim walk, and eventually dropped down to Emigration. The whole descent part was on a trail that I'd never even heard of -- my friend who lives in Emigration knows that area well.
But back to your trail, this might make a nice medium-length loop starting with a climb of Mt Wire. The return might be awkward, I certainly would not want to walk the Emigration road. I don't know what that feature is that cuts straight back to This is the Place Park, is that a pipeline? Power line? Anyhow, maybe that's a reasonable route.
Is that smog? maybe fog? I forgot what grey dingy skies look like.A Happy Thanksgiving to all here on BCP. Sheila and I did our annual quick hike to the top of Ensign Peak this morning to get our hearts beating a little bit before enjoying a turkey dinner later today. There were a lot of screaming kids on the trail today, so Scatman almost had to go full grizzly bear!

when you go full grizz, do you:
1. growl at them
2. swat at them
3. throw rocks at them (oh wait, that's Bigfoot, bears can't throw rocks)
4. chase them
5. bury them/eat them
6. eat moths
Later this week, I'll be having surgery on a bunion on my right foot. It has been bothering me for about three years now, and it is slowly getting worse, so I decided to get it fixed, and take my recovery time over the winter months. The doctor tells me that I will be in a flat shoe for a month, and then two more months after that before I can resume rigorous activities.
