Ride up Emigration Canyon

Yesterday I rode my bike to the top of Emigration, then down into Little Dell, then up into East Canyon a bit. Overall, about 13 miles of uphill riding, but pushing to the top of Emigration wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would be.

Emigration Canyon, like all developable lands around Salt Lake, is being infested with monster-homes. See case-in-point below.



Ah well. Whomever owns that place will be first up against the wall when the revolution comes. Okay, second.

Imagine my surprise and delight when, after seeing this ungodly structure (which should never have existed in the minds of men, let alone having actually been caused to manifest in the world), I noticed someone of like-mind had already expressed my sentiments.



Here’s some more pics from the trip:
