In lands west of the city, west of the alpine and north of all that people associate Utah with lies an unassuming desertscape. Littered with mountains and large expanses of land, dotted with the history of Western expansion. This is where you go to get away from everything, it’s where you go for quiet, it’s …
I dunno the name of it, but my dad, my dog, and I all went on an awesome hike today. Out of the summits I've done here in Utah, they all had outstanding views but weren't necessarily pretty hikes. This trail on the other hand just wound through a canyon and plopped you out next …
Last week I attempted to climb up Francis Peak again. Exo and I attempted it during the winter but setbacks such as actual frozen feet and cornices at the top thwarted our summit. Since the snow has appeared to have all but melted, I gave it another shot last weekend. This isn't exactly what …
So a hike did end up happening over my weekend, albeit a short little jaunt up to Doughnut Falls with a coworker. The trail was pretty flat the whole way up until the very end where it shot straight up to get to the top of the falls, where we found nothing but disappointment. Doughnut …
This last weekend Exo and I attempted to climb up Francis Peak. The weather's been fantastic in Utah recently and I feel like an end is in sight for winter, but also Utah is a dumb jerk and in all likelihood a new ice age will blow in right around spring time and send everyone …
I've been wanting to go out for a hike since I did Avenue Twin Peaks, but the weather has been really crummy lately. The weather was still crummy when Exo and I went out to hike the North Canyon Trail, but the weather reports claimed it would clear up later in the day. Obviously weather …
Talking about hiking is good and stuff, but it's been a while since I've actually been out. It's been even longer since I've done any winter hiking (nearly a year to the day.. nearly). So an after-work hike up Malan's Peak in Ogden, UT seemed appropriate. It's a beautiful trail if you ignore the clouds …
