Ogden Bench, North Section
The North Section of the Ogden Bonneville
Shoreline Trail is a fun quick trail. It starts out (from the Ogden
Canyon TH) as singletrack, then changes to a graded road, along side a concrete
aqueduct, then switches back to singletrack for a few miles, then turns to
graded road again. At the top of the first section of singletrack, hang a
right on the graded road to view Ogden
Canyon, stay left and follow the road until you come to a fenced
off section, backtrack about 100 yards, and the singletrack continues on the
East side. From here on out, it's pretty easy to follow. You can continue
this ride all the way to the North Ogden Divide, but a good turn around point
is just before Cold Water Canyon. There is a black gate across the road, guarded
by "Spike" 
a
huge bulldog. We didn't explore beyond this point!
How to get there: I recommend starting the ride at the south end. Take the 12th St. exit from I-15 and head east. Just before entering Ogden Canyon, park on the north side of the highway. This is just across the street from the Rainbow TH.
Length: 13 miles, out and back
