For family night we took a drive up Butterfield Canyon to see the beautiful changing leaves and the wildlife. I really had no idea never having been in the canyon, how beautiful it is!!! Well worth the drive and super close to home!
As we were driving up the canyon we say tons of deer, we almost hit a mommy and baby dear (nearly).... then about 5 minutes later up the road. The conversation took place:
Brielle: "remember that time we saw a mommy and baby dear?"
Greg and I: "Yes honey wasn't that so long ago?" ha ha
So this picture doesnt really do it justice but the road can get really narrow up the canyon and it winds around corners. We almost hit head on to a few cars.... well Katie and I thought so anyway. She takes after me and is very nervous driving. There was a cliff on one side and a mountain on the other and passing cars was very scary. Katie on the way home said "I am just going to go to sleep back here so I don't freak out!"
When you get near the top of the canyon it really opens up into a large mountain range... I had no idea all this was so close to our house.

Isn't it beautiful???
I hate driving up it though too! I wish they would do something about that.
We love this canyon and drive up it all the time. Sometimes we go all the way to the top and down into Tooele.
