Summer Rides 2011


Ophir Canyon - near Kelly's Spring
Amanda and I had a great Saturday ride.
The weather was perfect and the canyon was beautiful, of course!
There were a lot of people on the mountain, but is was the start of the bow hunt.
We headed strait up the canyon and then headed into a canyon to the left of the one Jed and I rode in. Up at the top we were told we were near Kelly's Spring. We then rode strait south down the ridge to where the trail switched back and forth back down to the canyon we came up. Approximate 5 hour ride.

 Provo Canyon - South Fork
Patty and I wanted to go on a easy ride.
If you stay lower, this is a nice and pretty ride.
Lots of shade and some water crossings.
We rode for about 4 hours. Not too short and not too long. 
The only draw back was all the people on the trail that Friday.
Hikers, Bikers and a few on Horses.

Ophir Canyon - North Fork
Jed and I haven't ridden in Ophir Canyon much.
I did once last October, but I'm not sure where we went
(Up to a trough to the west and then down this canyon).

This trail was beautiful. There were a lot of water crossings and tons of Aspen trees. We saw 4 other people riding that Saturday morning, but that was all. Definitely need to explore more in this canyon!
