The Living Room

God blessed us with a great Spring day hike! We went by faith! It looked like a rainy day; but Jesus gave us a beautiful sunny day! The Living Room has stone chairs to sit on and fantastic views of Salt Lake City.




DESCRIPTION: Park by the Bonneville Shoreline trail, near the gate to Red Butte Gardens, on Colorow Drive and Wakara Way. Follow the shoreline trail south. Near Georges Hollow take the trail to the left up to the upper shoreline trail and turn right. You'll find the main trail to the Big Beacon & Living Room around the bend. Stay on the main trail, and do not take any minor trails to the left or right. At the top of the gulley, there is a fork in the trail. Go left to the Living Room or go straight for the summit hike.
