SNAKE CREEK PASS

LAKE MARY TRAILHEAD

We saw a family of deer in their living room. Blue birds and squirrels were playing in fir trees. 

BRIGHTON, UTAH

We played on a split rock on the trail.

Snake Creek Pass overlook was radical with golden aspens. Looking below you can see Midway. We enjoyed lunch, and read our favorite Bible verse. Wholesome fellowship and a great time with Jesus!

DESCRIPTION: Begin at the Lake Mary trailhead, in the big parking lot area of Brighton Ski Resort. You'll find benches on the trail, as you climb the hills around the ski lift. At the trail junction, turn left towards Dog Lake. Keep left--the trail to the right takes you to Dog Lake. We heard children calling this Dog Pond. Continuing on the trail you will hike through an evergreen forest. Stay on the singletrack trail, and do not take any roads. 

At the saddle, you'll find a rocky overlook. Welcome to Snake Creek Pass.
