First time hiking from the City Creek TH. The drive in was smooth, mostly paved with the exception of 2 short dirt sections. The hike up was very nice, a steady climb but at a very hiker friendly grade. Once up top we took in the views and had our traditional lunch break. On the hike down you are really able to take in the sights and since you are now hiking downhill it was easy to get moving at a quicker than normal pace and lose your footing. I took one fall and almost another before forcing myself to intentional slow down at my normal hiking pace.

Wildlife sightings were 1 bull snake and 2 white-tail deer.

We will definitely be hiking from this location again
