Mormon Well Trail

November 17, 2007


Corn Creek turnoff Hwy 95 north
Meet 0830
Roll 0900

Lunch between 1200 and 0100pm
off the trail around 0330pm

:!: This is the last official run of the year :!: Get some dirt before the hollidays!
Bring Lunch and your camera. This is an easy scenic 1.0 trail with lunch in the pines.

Will update if necessary after the prerun.
Update: Somebody ran a grader over the trail and ruined it. :roll: but in their defense they built a really nice picnic and camp ground at the top. :D But for some reason there was no paper in the restrooms. :?
Was very scenic and if your'e sharp, there are still a few rogue flowers blooming. No pics from the pre-run, you'll just have to see it for yourself!....and i firgot my camera :?

I'm going!

This is a really scenic trail - last year the backside looked like a lunar surreal landscape due to the fire up there. I wonder how much things have healed in a year?

I was also inspired by one of the photos I took to complete a pastel painting...

OK - who else is coming??
