What made our trip to Logan Canyon, Utah so amazing was spending the day at Tony Grove Lake.

Wildflowers ranging from cerulean to coral festooned the area. Little g and I meandered around the self guided nature trail and through some tall pine forest for a little over a half mile, enjoying the many colors all around us.

Buzzing bees and hummingbirds whizzed around, and the high mountain temperatures were perfect for a summer day.

Tony Grove Lake itself is calm and beautiful, surrounded by grand cliffs and tall trees.

This high altitude lake is located over 8,000 feet and is fed by snow runoff, making it cold. But Big E and his cousins didn’t seem to mind the chill, spending hours splashing, swimming and floating. We brought an inflatable kayak and loved the freedom of gliding across the water.

If you’re planning a trip to this area, be aware there is a parking fee for Tony Grove Lake. The parking lot is located at the end of a winding seven mile paved road, three quarters of the way up Logan Canyon. It was a great place to explore and the scenery was breathtaking.

Rating: 5 stars during wildflower season (June/July)
Length: 0.5 miles
Difficulty: Easy
Tips: Expect to walk at a toddler’s pace unless you have the strength to wrestle a screaming, uncooperative almost two-year-old into a pack and then listen to her cry all the way along the trail.
Very pretty! This will be added on our list of places to go this summer!
