12 mile loop up Millcreek. One of my favorite runs. Ran counter-clockwise from Big Water parking lot to Dog Lake, Desolation Lake and back down to Big Water parking lot.

Is there a better view from the top of Scott's Pass down both valley's? (SLC and Park City).

The dreaded fire pit (Desolation Lake--ironic?) where in 2009 I sat defeated at my first Wasatch 100 attempt (mile 67). Sat with my head in my hands not knowing how to go on. Finally pulled my self away and up Scott's Pass to Brighton (which was no small miracle). Pulling myself off of that log, leaving that fire, knowing the pass that had to be climbed, was one of the most difficult things I've ever done. Brighton Lodge, on the floor in fetal position for 3 hours until finally pulling out--DNF.

Scott's Pass

One of the most spectacular views in the Wasatch

Nice run. I need to go do that loop soon.

Thanks Jake. It is a great loop. Deer flys were bad!

What? There are bugs in the Wasatch?

Great pics. I guess it's time for me to get up there.

Jun: It's time buddy. I forget how incredible this section is.

PS nice job with the FKT on the triple crown.

Great run! I need to hit those trails.
