It’s been a while since we’ve been together for a drive, so it’s time to start thinking Trappers Loop!
On Saturday, August 14th we will meet as usual at the east end of the Hogle Zoo parking lot. That’s 800 South (which becomes Sunnyside Ave that far east) and 2600 East for those who may be unfamiliar. Plan to meet up at 9:00 for a 9:30ish departure.
This run is traditionally one of our most popular and I would expect a good turnout. We will head up Emigration Canyon (mind the bikers & the deer) to SR65 and SR66 down into the Morgan Valley. A usual stop will be made at the Phillips/7-11 in Morgan before we proceed on W Old Highway Rd. down to Mountain Green and take the right on 167 (Trappers Loop Rd.) over the top.
After much deliberation on what to do for lunch this year, we’ve decided to return to I.D.K Barbeque in Huntsville. https://idkbarbecue.com/
So we’ll turn right at SR39 at Pine View Reservoir and head into Huntsville. Arrangements have been made with them and the are expecting us. One caveat, although they have promised me that they will have food, their seating is limited. There is a beautiful grassy area behind their location with a few tables and a great park out front, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to bring a chair just in case.
From there, you’re on your own as to choosing your route home, there are various.
I look forward to seeing you there and let me know if you have questions.
