From Brighton we drove up to Guardsman Pass, than down to Midway, and then up Snake Creek Canyon to the ridge above the North Fork of American Fork Canyon.
Left is the clearing on the ridge while the photo on the right is the road coming down American Fork Canyon.
On the right is a view of Mount Timpanogos with Tibble Fork Reservoir. When we arrived at Tibble Fork we did a side trip that took us up to Silver Lake Flats (above) where we had lunch.
It was a welcome break for the valley heat, although the roads were often rough and dusty but better than in the 1960s when Tom and I explored the area. It was good to see access to Mineral Basin and Mary Ellen Gulch remains open.
This would be a fine loop in the autumn.
