TOMORROW!!!!!! You dont want to miss our trail run. The Mormon Pioneer Trail climbs from near Little Dell Reservoir up to Big Mountain Pass, following the path blazed by the Donner Party and followed by the Mormon pioneers. This trail is quite smooth, but gets a bit steeper as it climbs the switchbacks to the pass. Its easy-intermediate technical, but pretty strenuous aerobic. Starting altitude is 6,040, with 1,000 vertical feet of climbing, much of it in the last couple of miles. Getting there, roadside trailhead (3.5-mile option): On I-80 in Parleys Canyon, take the Little Dell Recreation Area exit (Also known as the East Canyon exit). From the exit, turn left (if coming from Salt Lake City) and drive uphill 4.1 miles, then park on the right side of the road near the outhouse at GPS N 40° 47.996 W 111° 40.750. The trail begins on the opposite side of the road, just downhill. Parking can be fairly limited, so we will carpool from the 3900 S Park and Ride like we did for Millcreek/Dog Lake at 7:00am! Comment below if you will be trailing with us tomorrow! #getsome
