Hiking up into the valley.
The trail runs in the wide, flat New Fork River valley, as it heads towards the narrow, rugged New Fork Canyon in the distance (center).
The willows are eye level and higher - good thing the trail corridor is wide and well maintained.
The trail travels through the grasses and willows of the New Fork River valley, as it heads to its crossing of the river.
Close to the bottom of the switchbacks, if one looks closely, in the center, the trail can be seen crossing the broad, flat New Fork River valley below.
