OWJ HIKE RATINGS

Outdoors with Jesus is an informal club hiking the Wasatch Mountains of Northern Utah, since the Summer of 1986.  After many years of hiking experience, we have come up our trail ratings. 


LAKE MARY HIKE

NEWBIES trails are great for kids, beginner hikers, and those who are out of shape.  These are shorter hikes, with less elevation gain.

DOG LAKE HIKE

MODERATE trails are more difficult and have more miles.  Children may attend.  Hikers are allowed to go at their own pace.  If you are a slower hiker, please bring a companion to stay with you and turn back if you need to.


INTERMEDIATE trails are longer and steeper, and are for seasoned hikers.  No children please.



DIFFICULT trails are steeper, longer and may have more elevation gain.  Hikers on these trails are experienced, and may hike with less breaks. No beginner please.

PLUS trails are between two ratings.  Moderate plus is between a Moderate and Intermediate trail.
