Stuart Falls; A Beautiful Fall Hike near Sundance, Utah

If your looking for a beautiful place to hike, you need to go to Stuart Falls.  Stuart Falls is 200 foot, two tier waterfall.  You can hike to the falls year round.  You may need snowshoes or cross-country skis during the winter months. 
The hike starts at Sundance Resort.   There also trail heads starting in American Fork Canyon and Aspen Grove, but the Sundance route is the mildest.  It took us a little over an hour to hike the 3.5 miles.  The trail is a gradual incline, but not enough to make you out of breath.  
Here are some photos of our colorful, fall hike.

I can picture a tiny elf or fairy living in this tree hole.

Thanks for visiting!  
If you ever come to Salt Lake City, UT make sure you go up the canyon and get some amazing hiking in.  I am so lucky to live in such a beautiful place with hiking trails in my back yard!

    1. It was chilly in the shade, but felt perfect in the sunlight. I wore a light jacket.
