Description: From the parking area, start on Upper Corner Canyon Road. It climbs gently on the sunny hillside, heading south to the canyon. Enjoy the beautiful views of Draper and the Salt Lake Valley. At 1.2 miles in, you see the junction for the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. Go right and leave the road for the trail. As you approach the canyon, before the trail drops to the canyon floor, take the second trail on the left for Ghost Falls. It isn't posted. The trail drops into the trees and crosses the creek. After crossing, stay to the right, where the trail loops back around and follows near the creek on the south side. Watch for a trail split on the left that crosses the creek and take it. About 2.5 miles in, you come to Ghost Falls. Just past the falls a trail splits on the left. Take this trail to the overlook. Enjoy the canyon view at the overlook, backtrack down and go left at the junction. You are now on the Ghost Falls South Trail. There are many trails in this area, so explore and continue down the canyon to the Shoreline Trail, completing your loop. In summer, the Upper Corner Canyon Road is opened at Orson Smith. Drive to the overlook and start hiking down into the canyon.
