Today is Memorial Holiday. We did not know there were many people hiking this beautiful trail until we got to the parking lot, which of course was full. We had to park our car far away from the trail head. The sky was cloudy, and we encountered some rain on the trail, which made it slippery. It was a steady ascent with 2,600 feet elevation gain. But the view at the end was breath-taking and well worth the muscle ache.

母親節的這一個禮拜幾乎天天下大雨，給了連續幾年乾旱的鹽湖城需要的雨水。天氣預報說母親節天將放晴，實在不太相信。但是沒想到週日起床後，發現天空竟然是藍色的。更沒想到雨後的天空還有許多的浮雲，把天空裝飾的更漂亮，山上步道盛開的野花也為整個風景增色不少。

This Sunday we decided to hike to Block U through the Shoreline trail via Dry Creek Canyon. We had hiked this trail 3 years ago in early April. We were surprised this time by all the wild flowers along the trail. But the most spectacular view was at the top of the mountain just behind the Block U. We just had some scattered rain storm in the valley, but luckily the trail was dry. Views along the trail were gorgeous. I also notice there were lots of maple trees. It would be a great trail to hike in autumn for the color-changing scene.
