Worm Fence Trail, also known as Shoshone Trail 25

This trail is labeled "most difficult." It has steep rocky surfaces. We used four-wheel drive going up the rocky hillsides. The lower balloon marker shows approximately where we parked at the staging area. The other marker shows approximately where the Little Bear Trail started. South of that marker is considered Worm Fence Trail.

September 23 Visit to Temple Fork Road, Logan Canyon, Utah

Temple Fork Road is up Logan Canyon about 17 miles east of Logan on Highway 89. We turned right on Temple Fork Road and drove about 1 mile to a staging area. Temple Fork is a narrow gravel road that is hard for two full-size vehicles to pass. One vehicle will have to pull over as the other slowly passes, so drive carefully.
Our GPS location at the staging area was N41degrees 49.795 W111degrees34.768 Elev. 5858 ft.
