Labor Day Hike In Corner Canyon

Wanted to try a hike we haven't done yet.  Trent found a simple one called Ghost Falls up in Corner Canyon by the Draper Temple.  It was fun and very easy for those non hikers in our family.
The trail was shaded most of the way and the overcast was nice.  Ammon was my front runner...but Jarom was my trail blazer.  He kept a good pace for all of us.
                               
Every now and then the trail would pop out to see the view of Salt Lake Valley.  It was also neat to see the temple in the horizon.  Seriously, I wish I had a better portable camera...phone pics are depressing.  It was spectacular.

 Finally we made it to the falls...but...that is the falls?  A little disappointing.  A little bit of running water over some rocks.  Maybe that is why it's ghost falls?  Can't see it?  :o/  I over heard another family say they use to be able to play in it...but it was barricaded off.  I'm sure in the spring there would be more run off and it would be more of a spectacle.  Oh well, it was a fun, refreshing hike.

 Altogether on the bridge ready to loop back around.
