A group of about 10 of us met up at 7:15 off of Bear Hollow Rd. near the Canyons resort in Park City. We ran a very cool loop that hooked together a few trails I had not run before. I'll have to go back and piece it all together, but we ran sections of the Mid-Mountain trail, Holly's Down, Rob's Trail, and a couple of others. We looped back to our starting point from one of the lodges on the north section of the Canyons. It was 28 degrees when we started, but we warmed up quickly with a 3 mile climb, gaining 1500 feet. We reached a saddle and then had a very gradual and winding 5 mile descent on some great single track through pines and aspens. Not many leaves left, but still very pretty. The views on this run were great. I put a little bit of effort into the climb, but for the most part it was just easy and conversational. It was a good group of folks to hang out with for this autumn run. |
