Great views! Utah Lake is within Utah Valley, in north-central Utah. Mountains surround Utah Valley on three sides: The Wasatch Range to the east, Traverse Mountains to the north, and the Lake Mountains to the west. Mount Nebo reaches an altitude of 11,863-foot and Mount Timpanogos reaches an altitude of 11,745-foot , nearly 7,250 feet above the valley floor.

Read moreThis trail exceeded my expectations. I loved enjoying sunset while walking along the trail. I enjoyed watching the ducks swim, and caught a glimpse of 2 beautiful cranes.

The beauty of the lake, and the fresh lake smell was refreshing, and the views of the mountains was stunning especially when they lite up all pink from the sunset. The book the Nature Fix states lots of studies that are proving how being out in nature especially a place that inspires awe dramatically increases your immune system, your creativity, and your emotional wellness. This walk was a perfect awe hike for me that I felt entirely replenished afterwards.

The reason I have posted this is that residents of this lake side town are concerd at Vineyard Beach Utah. On this Trail, #Shoshone have visited recently to ask for cleanup and not more dumping into the lake.
Not sure if you are familiar with Shoshones but the famous #Sacagwea tribe is #Shoshone.
Just really hoping it will be cleaned up soon and the health issues for ourselves and kids are also considered.
