It is absolutely beautiful.

It is 3 or 3.5 miles one way, and has some pretty steep sections. Scouts do it all the time, but I would definitely rate the trail as strenuous. I'd heard there was another way there, which is probably the way you describe. Sounds a lot easier.

My daughter is participating in the "play unplugged" program this summer, and one of the activies you can earn a badge for is to hike with your family and friends up to the "Big Tree" in Loafer Canyon. I've googled around, and it sounds like we need permission to hike there? Do you know who we contact about that? We live in Elk Ridge. If you could call me at 801-369-3124, I would appreciate any information you have. Thanks!
