Providence City was giving the road up Providence Canyon a fresh coat of something nasty that is mean to hold down the dust. I didn’t feel like riding through whatever the stuff is so I took the round about route down the Bonneville shoreline trail. Lucky for me the gate right at the mouth of the canyon was closed with multiple padlocks. That added a bit of distance to the ride as I searched the fence for an hole big enough for the Ripmo and I.
Having found said hole I had a great time climbing. The Forest Service is putting in a new bridge in a strange spot. Clearly the government has no aptitude for trail flow.
