We left the dogs home today to do the Butler Fork Trail up Big Cottonwood Canyon. They don't allow dogs up Big or Little Cottonwood Canyons so it is a rare occasion we ever get up these canyons. We took the Butler Fork Trail up Mill A and did the left fork up to All Circle Peak topping out at 8,707'. It was a gorgeous day and a bit hotter than we expected. This used to be one of my favorite hikes. Although I will admit it was steeper than I remember. We explored the trail out to Bakers Pass for a ways but decided we couldn't make it to the pass and turned around. My Garmin was on the fritz, so I just had to estimate the data.
Trailhead Elevation: 7,107 feet
Highest Elevation: 8,707 feet
Total Elevation Gain: 1,600 feet
Total Distance: 5 miles
