No. UT: Chasing Waterfalls in Bells Canyon ~ Slow & Steady

About This Event

Join us for a butt-kicking good time filled with encouragement, laughter, and strong trail camaraderie as we take on the climb to Bells Canyon Lower Falls.

Expect a solid workout, plenty of cheerleading along the way, and that unbeatable payoff at the falls. April on the trail may bring cool mornings, icy and/or muddy patches, and the chance of lingering snow, but it also means rushing water, early spring vibes, and fewer crowds—making the challenge even more rewarding.
