So my birth day is on July 10th. I will be heading up providence canyon(Logan area) for the day. this is a sunday so nobody should be working. "since we are in Utah"
I would really like to see some people from down south of me come up and run this with me. I am giving you pleanty of time to plan on funds and ok it with the boss....
let me know if you want to come up.
The trail is not two bad you can do it open open, one locker is perferred in some spots. we still have a little snow but by then i think it will be about gone. trail takes about 3-4 hours depending on what and where we go. if you have never been to the top to over look the valley you are missing out on some great mountain veiw's..

we usually meet at macey's it is right off of the highway and is a straight shoot to the canyon. time does not really matter if people do come then it is a drive so i don't know how early you would want to go. I would say at least leave macey's by noon. I will get a address or if sean comes he can lead the way.

That sucks about AF and you know mineral basin trail is even worse off!
I gotta have another way to feed the beast. Were the jerry cans you've used the old style, or new? I'm sure they would be heavy as hell, but the filler neck looks like any other modern gas can. What might you guys recommen?

in the past ive noticed that the forest lake trail takes more damage from the snow then mineral basin. But as soon as both trails open up im going to have another run/ camp out at the cabin like we did last year.... seemed like everyone had a blast

I might be done for some camping but it will probably only be me and my 6 year old.
