Trails Courtesy Of Instagram

On Saturday I enjoyed a highly splendid 10 miler on the Jem Trail. It was the first day of December.....and almost 70 degrees outside! The summers in southern Utah make you want to jump off the nearest skyscraper. (You'll have to drive a few hours to Las Vegas to find one.) But the winters here are great.

Here are some views from Saturday on the Jem - courtesy of the Instagram app:

The Jem Trail is where I head if I don't have a lot of time and want to get in a few quicker miles. There isn't much climbing and most of the trail isn't too technical.

I love each time I reach this certain spot where you can see the trail weaving through the desert. I'd love to do a photo shoot here sometime where I could catch people running on the trail below.

  1. Your blog pictures have a direct correlation with the amount of dissatisfaction I feel with living in the midwest. :)
