Come get out of the heat this Saturday July 16 and see beautiful views like this! Time for a drive up the Mirror Lake road.
For the Salt Lake crowd, meet on the east side of the the Hogle Zoo parking lot for a >>> 7:15am <<< departure — Roger and Jill Davis will lead the group up from here up to Kamas
2600 E Sunnyside Ave, SLC, UT 84108
For those coming from Utah County, who want to travel thru Provo Canyon, we will be leaving from the Chevron station at the mouth of Provo Canyon and Orem 800 N. at >>> 7:15am <<<. That should put us in Kamas about 8:15.
From the Zoo we’ll drive up Emigration Canyon and Parley’s Canyon before our stop in Kamas at the new 7-Eleven for an >>> 8:30am <<< departure
220 S Main St, Kamas, UT 84036
NOTE: In order to beat the heat we’ll be departing from both stops right on time!
ALSO NOTE: there is a $6 fee for stopping along the Mirror Lake road, or use your National Parks pass/golden passport
(We’re not stopping long, so you may be OK without paying but I’ll have my pass with me)
This is an out-and-back drive. We’ll go up over the pass and down the other side to the Ruth Lake area for a quick stop before turning around and heading back to Kamas. I expect we’ll be back in Kamas by about 10:30am so y’all can get back to SLC before the heat of the day.
Optional post-drive extras:
- Mirror Lake Diner in Kamas is a great place for a late breakfast or early lunch. It can get quite crowded, but if folks want it’s a nice place to stop in after the drive for a little food.
- Coalville City Fender Fest: 202 Park Road, Coalville UT. 10am – 3pm.
