Red Butte Canyon
This gallery shows pictures from Red Butte Canyon. The canyon sits due East of Fort Douglas and the University of Utah. The main canyon road is closed about a half mile up the canyon. There is a system of bike trails on the North side of the Canyon. The Skyline Trail is on the South Side of the Canyon. It winds up the mountain shoulder on the East side of Red Butte Canyon.
Check out Salt Lake Sites - Garden for links to gardening sites in Utah.
The Red Butte Canyon road crosses the Bonneville Shoreline Trail at the base of the canyon. You can find more trail information on Salt Lake Sites - Trails.
I took this set of pictures on Easter Sunday, April 8, 2007.
