Doughnut Falls Spring Snowshoe

The winds were howling in the Salt Lake Valley; but God blessed us with a wind-free, partially sunny day in the mountains.   Today we found a snow fort on the trail.
RATINGS: Moderate
NO DOGS:  Big Cottonwood is a protected watershed area.
RESTROOMS:  They locked the restroom by the Big Cottonwood road.
GEAR:  The snow is soft, and wearing your snowshoes are a must.  Bring poles, water, energy snacks, sunglasses, sunscreen, hat, snowboots, and dress in layers.
DIRECTIONS: Drive up Big Cottonwood Canyon to Mill D South Fork and find a place to park.  Follow the cabin road up to the Doughnut Falls trailhead.
