I found a mountain bike trail that drops into the valleys on the east side of Francis peak and followed it for a little over 5 miles. I think it may loop up and connect with smith lake, or at least I hope it does. I didn't have time to find out today, but I will definitely be back. If you live in davis county and you haven't taken this trail before, I highly recommend it.

I wanted to do more but I had court this morning so I couldn't run until later tonight. That cuts into my family time and I'm also a bit more tired. Plus, I think the ~29 miles I've done in the past 3 days is taking a little toll. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Flag Rock and sunset trail. I wanted to get to the campground but ran out of time. I only made it to the second stream crossing.

from my house up to flag rock from the south, down the north side and up the canyon, via sunset trail, to the campground, then down the road and back.
