Lake Blanche– Sweet Snowshoeing Hike in BCC!
You should totally go hike this trail up to Lake Blanche in Big Cottonwood Canyon! Heather and I did it a week or so ago and hardly anyone was up there. It’s beautiful! It’s also the trail to approach Sundial Peak. It starts at the first bend of what is literally a steep, tight “S” in the road, about halfway up to the ski resorts. Total elevation gain was 6700 to 9000 (2300ft). The trail starts in evergreen forests and rises up into the aspen groves, and then tops out on a rocky “shelf” that holds a few frozen-over lakes behind it. Let me know if you go! –Logan
