Joined Fan and Mike today for a sweet hike/run up Rattlesnake Gulch through the nasty bushes that are bloodthirsty and up to first Box Elder Peak (9372') then over to Wellsville Cone (9356').  Called it a day and headed back down through the corridor of death.  Good times.  Feeling closer to 100%.  Every day it gets a bit better!

Naomi Peak (9979')

Highest peak in Bear River range.  Today it was attacked by a different approach.  I have not run that far up Smithfield Canyon before so today was the day.  Pretty cool trail.  Lots of steep stuff and rocky stuff.  Not terribly runnable.  The bit from the 7 sisters ridge along the Naomi Ridge was pretty rough.  Pretty slow sidehilling over to the peak.  Great view of the smoke filled valley below.  Got back in the dark.  Brought my head torch though so I was fine.  Good stuff!

Millville Peak Loop + Tag of Millville Peak (9282')

Route was a mix of old and new trails.  Prov canyon to quarry.  Hike up short but brutal road to link up with trail that wraps around Big Baldy.  Lost the trail here in a few spots due to cattle.  Followed the trail until it meets with the top of Millville Canyon Road and Leatham Hollow TH.  Follow the road to the saddle, tag peak, head back down via Providence canyon.  Try not to fall on the rocks on the steep upper section.  Somehow all the dirt in the trail dissapeared and all that is left is rocks the size of a fist up to a bowling ball.  Tough to run on.  

My body told me I was done at Millville peak but I still had 8 miles of downhill left.  Super slow place and I got it done.  Cool run, but man am I spent now!
