hike - maple mountain loop - April 16, 2016
This is a fun loop that includes a detour to one of the less visited peaks in Utah County. We'll start off on the Y-Mountain Trail, connect to the Slide Canyon Trail, then hike/scramble/bushwhack to the summit of Maple Mountain. Afterwards we'll hike down to the Slate Canyon trail and enjoy the beautiful cliffs and forests on our way back to the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. I expect the entire loop to take 6~7 hours with a moderate pace. As we get closer to the date of the hike I will send out more information regarding gear to bring (depending on the weather and how much snow we get between now and then).
