Some things to look out for: The Spiral Jetty is land art itselfThere's a guest book, which is kept in a green bag under the rocks near the parking lot.

From the Rattlesnake Trailhead (about a mile northeast of the Sherwood Hills Resort on U.S. 89) to the peak is just under 4.5 miles. The hike is great exercise, as it's relatively steep.

Between the two lots, I prefer the 27th St. trailhead. The...

There are plenty of parking spots and restrooms but sometimes the restrooms are locked. Take the trail until it meets up with the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. You will pass a fence with sign...
