Hike Description:
VP hikers,Lets give our snowshoes a break and do a hike on Stansbury Island. We are doing the loop hike past the Fremont Indian Rock Art. If you have never seen the art, its well worth seeing. The island is a peaceful place to just take in the beauty of the Great Salt Lake on a cool Fall day. I don't expect mud on our route, but you might want to bring grocery bags to cover your shoes in the car. Bruce may offer a snowshoe Sunday and if he does, I will post that later.
DOGS: Are allowed, but you will need to drive you and your hairy friend to the trailhead. There is no water on the island for your dog.
WEATHER ISSUES: If we need to cancel from weather issues, I will send out an email by 8:00 AM Sunday morning. So check your email before you go to the meeting place.
DIFFICULTY: Easy/Moderate
ELEVATION GAIN: Unsure
ROUND TRIP MILES: About 5 miles
LUNCH WITH GREAT SALT LAKE VIEWS: Don't forget to bring a lunch, sunscreen and water.
MEETING and LEAVING AT 9 A.M. (come 15 minutes early to socialize)
We will be meeting at Sam's Club on 1850 South 300 West. Meet us on the southeast corner of the parking lot.
MEETING OPTION II:
If you live in Tooele County you can meet us at the second Grantsville Exit off I-80. The group should be there at 9:45 AM. Please call Conley or me Sunday morning letting us know this is your plan.
DRIVERS: If we have a large number of hikers, please consider being one of the drivers. From the parking lot, we will carpool. Please help your drive with the gas expense. The road to the trailhead is fine for cars.
