Mount Timpanogos Trail to First Falls
hikers: mark and lecia
The trail starts at the parking lot just above Aspen Grove.
It's just past the booth where you pay to go up the Alpine Loop so there is a $6 charge.
On a beautiful day the parking lot would be packed but this late in the season there was plenty of parking.
This is also the parking lot where you start the trail to Stewart Falls.
It's a much used and well worn trail. As you can see it is marked to help you stay on track. The trail is paved in some parts.
We were hoping for some fall color and leaves but at this point in the season the leaves were all on the ground.
We saw a few hikers including one that had summited Timp earlier and was on his way down.
Mostly we saw photographers. Here and also all along our drive on the Alpine Loop.
And here are the first falls!
It's about a mile to get from the parking lot to the falls.
This is as far as we went today and it worked perfectly because the sun was going down but we got back to the parking lot before it was dark.
What a beautiful view heading back down the trail!
