Melody and I went to Garden Park Ward to look around and take some pictures on Tuesday, June 13, 2006. I grew up in the neighborhood and used to play there all the time. Cool place.

Album: Provo Canyon, Upper Falls
Took a short hike to Upper Falls in Provo Canyon. Beautiful place and only about 1/2 miles from the Provo River trail. The path to the falls is a bit steep but worth the hike.

Album: American Fork Canyon. Oct. 18, 2003.
I headded up AF canyon to help with a project to remove some old junked cars from some the 4wd trails. Unfortunately this project was delayed. I had a great day anyway. I spent the day exploring the area and found some great historical places. See the photo album for pictures of Mineral Basin from afar - even a glimps of one of Snowbird's high speed quad chairlifts. Also a couple mines and some great views.

Album: Yellowstone and Teton National Parks 2003
I decided to take a half day frinday and half day monday from work and spend the weekend in Yellowstone and Teton National Parks. It was great! Check out the colors in Logan canyon I found on my way home (near the end of the album). Amazing.

Album: Pinecrest to Mt. Wire (2000)
I did a long awaited hike from Pinecrest (which is it the top of Emmigration Canyon east of Salt Lake City, UT) to Research Park (RP) in Salt Lake City via the ridge line between Emmigration and RedButte Canyons, to Mt. Wire followed by a steep decent through Georges Hollow to the Huntsman Chemical Building in RP. The hike is long and takes aproximately 9 hours with a lot of bush-whacking an some encredible views! Your last source of water is the creek in the canyon with the mine. Be sure to bring a water filter or treatment tapblets and fill up. You'll need 4 liters/person minumum, more in hot weather.

Album: Lasal Mountains and Moab
May of 2000 trip to Moab and the LaSal mountains. We camped in the LaSals East of Moab and did a little geocaching at Hurrah pass.

Album: Round Valley spring 2001
On a crisp spring Saturday morning (2001/03/31), two friend's and I took off for a unbelievable ride through Round Valley Utah. It's about 45 statute miles SE from Salt Lake City, UT. and about 1 hour by car or about 25 minutes from Provo and Orem though Provo Canyon. There is a small town in the middle of the valley called Wallsburg. Nice. One store, a small post office and another store (closed at the time) that was one of the original ZCMI stores in Utah.

Very picturesque, Round Valley is located about 10-15 minutes SW of Heber City Utah. For this ride, we parked at a junction by one of the marinas on Deer Creek reservoir. The road is well maintained with a slight uphill grade and a small amount of local traffic. The main road through the valley is just under 8 miles one way. With the extra loop we did (the route is drawn on the 7.5 minute map) our total distance was about 18.5 miles with some extra millage not drawn through the cemetary and a couple of small side roads.

As this is an "in and out" road, traffic is limited to locals who were very friendly. We enjoyed great views, some farm animals to talk to and a nice place to eat lunch about 1/4 mile past the end of the road pavement where we found a small open fenced area with two latrines (I don't know if they are accessible or locked...). Trip time was about 3 hours with 1.5 up and the other 1.5 down and exploring.
