Meet at 6pm if you can make it.
On I-80 in Parley's Canyon, take the Little Dell Recreation Area exit. At mile 2 after exiting the freeway, turn right into the Little Dell recreation area (fee required). There are a couple of turnouts on the R side of the road about 1/2 mile past Little Dell, where short trails drop downhill to join the Mormon Pioneer Trail.

last years trail report http://www.bogley.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13411 :popcorn:
Last year we parked at the reservoir parking (fee required but they didn't charge us) This time I plan to park just across the street from the paved parking on the north side of the road. :2thumbs: |

| I'm in. Hopefully the traffic coming up from Orem won't be too bad. |

Have bike loaded- will travel!
So, after you make the turn to the Little Dell Rec. Area, do we pay and go in or park just outside the pay area? |

Dan and I went up there Saturday to ride this trail. The guy at the pay station said if we were there to bike there was no charge to park.
Count me in on the ride as well. |

| Thanks for the ride guys! Had never done this trail before and had a great time. Steeper climbing than I anticipated and had to stop once on that loose, rocky area when I picked the wrong line. Passed 2 other guys right there that I thought were both going to have heart attacks! The downhill was a blast but I couldn't quite keep up with Keith and his bigger-hit bike, on the steep, rocky sections. |
