Utah ultralight backpackers I’m looking to put in some energy to grow this local community more and wanted to extend an invite out to Utah ultralight backpackers on a couple trips in 2024.

r/ulutah is kind of dead over there so anyone here in Utah should join that group and we can do some more planning from there.

I am thinking two trips in 2024 for anyone that can’t make the first. One in spring and one in the fall. I’d like to focus one of the trips on being very inclusive to all different levels and experiences and another that is much more challenging physically and on the route finding.

Date Options: First two weekend in May Last two weekends in September

Areas of Interest: Uintas Escalante La Sals Wasatch Mtns (overnight up to red pine or lake Blanche or Lone Peak Cirque at the very least) Capitol Reef NP Deep Creeks? Section of the Hayduke?

Goals here are to explore new areas, learn new skills, show off some gear, create inspiration/community, make some friends.

Comment below if you’re interested!

UPDATE:

Plans being made! We have a group chat going organizing the weekend of May 3-5. Just comment below to get added.
