Looking up the main waterway in the area.
We drove up Provo Canyon and then took the North Fork past Sundance and Aspen Grove up to the turnoff for Cascade Springs today, and took Grandma Hill with us.
Posing on one of the bridges.
It was quite busy in the North Fork Canyon and there were quite a few cyclists too, but we were about the only car going to Cascade Springs after the turnoff. We didn’t get away until about 5:30 so we were worried we would not have enough daylight to see things, but it worked out beautifully. It was quite cool in the mountains, a nice contrast to the warm temperatures that got up into the 70’s and felt quite warm in the sun. (We went walking during the day in the sun and it was quite warm.) The scenery was beautiful as you can see and even though there were quite a few people there it was not particularly crowded. We took the road to the east up and over the ridge over to Wasatch Mountain State Park in Midway just for a change of pace. It was paved on the Cascade Springs side but on the other side of the ridge it was well-graded gravel and very wide. This was a nice quick and relaxing trip for us to see the beauty of that place and some of the colors of fall that were there. We need to do this next summer during our family reunion if it turns out to be convenient!
