Connector Trail Details
Designed to connect the Hop Valley Trail with the Wildcat Canyon Trail, this overgrown and seldom-used trail makes a pretty, albeit featureless, run through the Lee Valley. Mostly level, the trail heads east through the golden grasses that fill the wide valley, offering pretty views of Pine Valley Peak and the West Temple, and later ascends through slickrock and dense pines to reach Wildcat Canyon Trail. Note that the valley is mostly private land, and although the trail is poorly marked in areas, it is important to try to remain on the path.
