Wheeler and East Fork Trails


My brother-in-law, his brother, cousin, friend, and I took a quick ride up the Wheeler Canyon Trail (pictured above) and then took a quick ride on the East Fork Trail from the Art Nord Trailhead late one evening. It was a short ride, and we hit it hard and fast before it got a chance to get too dark, but was a lot of fun.




After riding the first 1.8 miles up to the Art Nord Trailhead, you then cross the old Snowbasin Road and go up a dozen yards to the East Fork Trail (pictured top left). The trail is wide and the short portion we rode this night had recently had a lot of work done to it. There were actually at one point of the trail two backhoes parked off to the side, having done work on the trail recently. There were a few parts that were still quite soft as a result of it.





This is an extremely beautiful trail with some beautiful meadows and hills - it was just a pity that we had to make it so short to get back before it got too dark. Fast and furious on the way down - and I wasn't even keeping up!
