TWIN PEAKS ATTEMPT

HIKERS: Amy, Dave, Justin
WEATHER: 53 F, Stormy - hail rain & thunder
ELEVATIONS:
SUMMIT: 11330'
DISTANCE RT:
RT TIME: 1 hour 45 min

AMY'S NOTES: Thwarted by stormy weather! A gorgeous hike cut short by hail, thunder, lightning, and other misc weather phenomenon. We hiked up an hour and reached the first meadow before deciding that this was not the day for a summit. Spotted a couple of rough grouse, watched low heavy clouds roll by, and to sound a little cheesy - generally marveled at the beauty around us.

DIRECTIONS: Big Cottonwood Canyon to the Mill B trailhead. From the bottom of the parking lot take the Broad Forks trail.
