Wade and I went on a ride on Monday and instead of going up to the north shoreline trail (due to traffic and time) we went and did little cottonwood/temple quarry.  to be met with a big surprise. 

This is the first bridge you come to...as you can see it wasn't...um accessible. 

Water had piled up behind a logjam and went around the bridge and washed it clean away.  The trail heading up to this had a 4 foot deep by 3 foot wide tear in it for about 50 feet.
as you can see.


There is quite a bit of water flowing right now from the sudden thaw/rain. 

Looks like this trail (as we currently know it) will be out of commission for a while.

Monday june 14 I am planning a ride up the north side of shoreline. It's not really to mordor, but the last time I rode it in the spring it looked just like something out of tolken. If the forecast holds let's plan on 545 at the city creek parking lot
