-Corner Canyon I was in SLC for the weekend so I was excited to be able to run new trails (to me). The last time I biked corner canyon was in high school. I don't think there were any singletrack trails. Only 4x4 and atv trails. My how things have changed. I biked from my parents house in Cottonwood Heights and left my bike at the trailhead on Wasatch Blvd and a hundred and something south. (35 mins). Now the fun part. I ran on BST south to the maze of trails in corner canyon. I quickly looked at a map and looked for a way up to the top. I picked a route and headed up. I now forget the names of the trails I took, but it seemed all of them were closed at some point in the trail for muddy conditions. I couldn't find a way up. I went up and down searching all over. It was a blast, but I really wanted to go to the top. So, eventually I found a way to the top. I am pretty sure the trail I found was open but I didn't care. I took Jacob's ladder to the top. I got pretty steep and a bit muddy, but that was nothing compared to the Jeep trail on top. It was a mud bog. My Hokas did great in the mud. They shed the mud pretty well. The only complaint was I kept getting small rocks into them. I needed to wear gaiters. I came down off the top on a different trail and I am pretty sure it was closed since I was the only on on it. I couldn't find another way down though. I was loving all the sweet trails. Eventually, I found myself next to the temple and back on BST. Awesome trails.
