Lake Marion

Provo River
 | 13 miles away 1 PHOTO Great ride from above Woodland to the 1000 E. bridge (which is a good scare during high water, 1500 cfs). After the bridge the log jams, second diversion dam and constant river splits can be fun in the right craft (13 ft raft, not recommended). Great rush!... Yeah...this river especially the lower part...really rocks.... |

Highline Trail
 | 19 miles away The U.S. Forrest Service last attention to this trail was in 1994/1995 and the trail markings in many places is all but non-existent. Portions of the trail---particularly in the meadows areas have been overgrown and rock cairn markers, where they do exist, are often overgrown and difficult to find. Do not attempt this trail without detailed terrain maps and GPS equipment and the ability to use both. It would also be a good idea to carry a satellite phone (rentals are available) as there is no cell phone signal anywhere along the route from the Mirror Lake trailhead on the West all the way to the Chepeta lake trailhead on the East... |

Deer Valley
 | 29 miles away ...008/2009) ? While some ski resorts strive to be ?bigger,? Deer Valley Resort has always sought to be ?better.? Opened in 1981 as an intimate affair, the Resort has expanded since then, but has remained focused on retaining its open, inviting and uncrowded environment. Last year?s addition of the new Lady Morgan Express chairlift and nine new ski runs on 200+ additional acres has been a huge draw to both new and returning ski guests. ?Opening up the Lady Morgan section of the mountain last season has truly rounded out our mountain experience,? says Bob Wheaton, Resort president and general manager. ?Although we opened up a new chairlift and nine new runs, we kept our skier cap of 6,500 tickets sold per day. So, we have more room and fewer skiers and our guests love the new area. And the proximity to the Empire Canyon Lodge for lunch makes it really convenient. Some guests are spending their entire day on that side of the mountain, skiing Empire Canyon and Lady Morgan exclusively. There?s that much terrain to explore. Sixty-five of the 200+ acres we added last year in Lady Morgan ar... |
