March 17 - Lambs Canyon Rd

Well Happy St Patty's Day!

And it's an awesome day - sunny, mid 60s. Can't beat it!

Time to get out for an after work hike. I'd love to go up Millcreek Canyon and hike up the Desolation Trail to Overlook but this Corvid-19 virus puts a wrench in things. With all the Salt Lake schools out and many people not working I'm sure the canyon will be packed - instead of isolating at home.

So I head up Parley's Canyon to Lambs Canyon. I doubt many folks will be walking a snow covered road and if so, there's plenty of room and fresh air.

I arrive just after 4pm. The parking area and start of the road is snow free but past the gate, it's still covered in snow (1 to 2 feet).

I start up and enjoy the sun and the sounds of the creek as I walk.



I see a few folks: the guy on the snow mobile heading up canyon, a guy mediating on the snow covered road and a couple in some snow trax vehicle heading up canyon.

As I reach the trail head, the little stream of water that is a butterfly attractant is snow free now! Soon, very soon.

Just a lovely little walk.

Good to get out!
