There were a couple things we wanted to do up in the Tony Grove area but the entire road is closed until July 1 so we had to skip the hike to Naomi Peak. We altered Bunchgrass White Pine Lake to be an out and back instead of a loop. Our ride was 17.5 miles …
Most of the time we try to find boondocking spots near all the riding and hiking we want to do so that we don’t have to drive much. This spot allows us to do just that. Again, we rode from camp on a fun route of 15.3 miles with 2178’ of climbing. We started out …
Old Ephraim was the last and said to be largest grizzly bear in Utah (as far as anyone knows). The grizzly allegedly did quite a bit of damage to sheep herds and after 10 years of tracking, Frank Clark shot him on August 22, 1923. At the time of his death he stood almost 10 …
We took a leisurely walk up Temple Fork Trail from camp one morning. Our hike was around 6 miles and followed the creek the whole way. Past the second bridge we turned left and headed up the canyon into thicker forest. We passed by several beaver dams and lots of greenery. Sawmill Temple Fork buzzed …

Spawn Creek Trail heads uphill gently through grassy meadows with the creek on one side and forest on the other. …

Wind Cave Hike is a short hike at 4 miles with 1007 feet of climbing, but well worth it for the views. This is a very popular hike in the area and even on a weekday morning we encountered a handful of groups and then at the very end, hordes of kids that I assume …
Our drive from Green River, WY to our new spot for a couple weeks in Cache National Forest was only a couple hours and we got to see a part of Utah we have not been to before. We took a chance after spotting what looked like some boondocking spots by some trails we planned …
