The annual Alpine Loop Run will happen on Saturday September 16. We will meet at 8:30 AM or so on the east side of the South Towne Mall (take the 106th South exit off I-15 going east, enter the mall parking lot off 106th South or from State Street about a block north of 106th South). We will plan on departing at 9:00 AM.
Alpine Loop starting directions
For those who are coming from down south, we will be stopping at about 9:45 AM for bio-reconditioning at the C-Store and Chevron Station in Alpine just before SR 92 enters Alpine Canyon.
We will be heading to Big Springs Park again for lunch this year. When we get to the intersection of SR 92 and 189 in Provo Canyon, we will turn RIGHT and head down Provo Canyon approximately 1 mile to South Fork Road. We’ll turn left on South Fork Road and proceed about 3 miles to Big Springs Park for lunch. This is a lovely little park near the end of South Fork. There are bathrooms but no other facilities. Rodger and Jill Davis will be serving up tasty BBQ for lunch, so bring your appetites!
We are planning on cooking hamburgers and hot dogs. The appropriate condiments (ketchup, mustard, relish,etc) will be available along with potato chips, plates, utensils, and napkins.
Bring what you’d like to drink since tastes vary so much it would be impossible to have what you’d want.
After lunch we’ll head up Provo Canyon to Heber/Midway and back to our homes. Should be a nice drive, hope to see you there! For those that want to try a little hill climb, the Guardsman pass road up out of Midway has is paved and is an absolutely lovely drive — and a test of your cooling system!
PLEASE SEND RODGER A BRIEF EMAIL LETTING ME KNOW IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON GOING TO THIS EVENT.
We need to know approximately how many people there will be so that we don’t run out of food, nor purchase way too much.
