Great Westen Trail - Lewis Peak

A couple of photos from a short 6 mile (one-way) hike up to Lewis Peak just above Ogden, Utah along a portion of the Great Western Trail.

Trail head start.

For one reason or another this photo kind of creeps me out.

Mountains to the north that lead to Ben Lomond Peak.

Along the trail.

Looking back towards Ben Lomond and the trail up.

Looking towards the south and the trail ahead.

Lewis Peak elevation marker. It's kind of crazy to know that I've hiked to peaks in Colorado that are 6,000 feet higher.
