Perfect day, air condition breezes across the lake, wildflowers coming out, ducks playing in the water, birds singing in the bushes and lake is completely full.
God gave us such an enjoyable day!

LAKE MARY
DESCRIPTION: Your hike begins up a gravel pathway, look for the Lake Mary sign. You'll hike up a meadow full of wildflowers, pass under large fir trees, see scenic views of Brighton, cross over a wooden bridge, and hike up behind the reservoir. This is a fun adventure for all ages!
DIRECTIONS: Enter Big Cottonwood Canyon from the intersection of Wasatch Blvd. and Fort Union Blvd. (70th South). Drive to the big parking lot at Brighton at the top of the canyon. On the east side of the parking lot is a large sign, this is the trailhead. Note: the old trail to the south is closed for vegetation restoration.
