ski tour rose canyon (exploratory)(oquirrhs) - December 28, 2008

Salt Lake County has recently purchased the Rose Canyon Ranch, which together with Yellow Fork Park and BLM lands, amounts to over 4,000 acres of untouched mountain land at 7,000 ft. and higher. Located in the southern Oquirrh Mountains, this area is reportedly home to a large herd of elk, as well as mule deer, turkeys, fox, grouse, chukars, and cougars. You should bring lightweight backcountry touring gear with scales or skins. I will obtain topographic maps prior to the trip to assess for avalanche caution areas (NTD+/MOD+)
