| Willow Heights is a short but rewarding trail in Big Cottonwood Canyon. In less than a mile, it climbs through a grove of mature aspens, crosses a beautiful meadow, and then circumnavigates a quiet alpine lake. On Saturday morning, Marylou, Mike, and I set out for this relaxed hike. At the lake, we found a lively crowd of backpackers camped out. (For anyone looking for a beginner-friendly backpacking trip, this spot is an excellent choice.) We weren't in any rush, so we strolled back down the trail at an easy pace, savoring the cool, peaceful morning. |
