About This Trail

Imported description

[IMPORTANT PARKING NOTE: Due to extremely limited parking access at Cecret Lake/Catherine's Pass Trailheads and to reduce congestion on the Albion Basin Summer Road and in the upper Albion Basin parking areas, it is highly recommended that hikers park in the Albion Base Area parking lot and hike the Upper Albion Meadows Trail or ride the free shuttle provided by the Town of Alta on weekends and holidays] Begin at the Cecret Lake parking area or connect from the Albion Meadows Trail. This old mining road switchbacks through lush meadows to a view above Cecret Lake and continues into upper Albion Basin. Note: Fees are in store for summer visitors to Albion Basin, the alpine wonderland at the head of Utah's Little Cottonwood Canyon, under a pilot program allowing Alta Ski Area to take over summer programs from its namesake town. The free town-operated shuttle service will not resume this summer and vehicle access will also be restricted up the unpaved summer road, although summer visitors will be able to park for free at the ski area parking lots and may ride the Sunnyside lift on weekends
