day hike to grandview peak from affleck park - May 26, 2012
We will hike to infrequently visited Grandview Peak above City Creek Meadows overlooking Davis and Salt Lake County. We will start at Affleck Park and then follow a trail heading towards Lookout Peak, but take a side trail that meets up with the Great Western Trail at Hardscrabble Pass. From there we'll travel west to meet the ridgeline for Grandview Peak. There is some easy scrambling the last half-mile to Grandview Peak. Expect a long day (at least 10 hours). Bring plenty of water and food.
