I started South Duel Creek Trail near Bountiful, Utah, before sunrise, using my phone’s flashlight to follow a narrow path above a ravine. The four-mile hike crosses the creek on eleven footbridges, climbs over loose gravel and rock, and ends at a waterfall. The descent revealed cascades I missed earlier.

Lake Mary via Catherine Pass- Salt Lake City, UT.
On a cold, windy morning, Kevin hikes Catherine Pass from the Alta side, discovering he has visited the lakes before from Brighton. As sunrise warms the ridge, he encounters wildlife, crosses varied terrain, and enjoys Lake Catherine and neighboring lakes. The return brings steep climbs, changing views, and a finish.

Grandeur Peak East Trail - Salt Lake City, UT.
Revisiting Grandeur Peak after ten years, I take on a steep Utah climb in thin morning air. The hike brings rocky switchbacks, sweeping Salt Lake City views, and a hard final ascent. At the summit, I reflect on aging, knee support, and why the descent can be tougher than the climb.
