Emigration Ridge

Map to trail head: The camp ground is actually about 3 miles up the road from this pushpin. There is a lot of riding both north and south from Emigration Campground. This is just North of 8 mile Canyon which comes out of Soda Springs and just north of the ride we took at Bloomington Canyon.
Summary: This was before I had the equipment to track my trails, but wanted to show off the pictures because it is an absolutely beautiful place to ride. The trail to the north drops into Eight Mile canyon (check out the
Ant Canyon ride for a sample of it.) with lots of options from there. To the south it also has lots of riding. We didn't have enough time to begin to explore it all. The
Bloomington Canyon ride is just south of the Emigration Campground, but I don't know how they connect. I hope to explore it more next summer.
