Elk hunting season started the previous weekend while we were in Vernal and we avoided hiking that first weekend. But we knew we couldn't stay off the trails for the whole hunting season and it was so beautiful in Torrey that we had to see the fall color. We put on our new orange vests and headed out to hike part of the Great Western Trail from
the Fish Creek Trailhead in the Dixie National Forest.
Much of the Great Western Trail in Utah is accessible to horses, mountain bikes and ATVs as well as hikers. We were a little concerned that being multi-accessible would attract more hunters. So we started our hike late in the morning to be safer and kept Maya close on her leash. We saw a few hunter's camps but didn't see or hear any hunting activity. The day was excellent and the aspens were shining!
