So I\u2019m out with my kids and dog on the Millennium Trail this morning. We were on the section between Gorgoza and Fresh Market (by Pinebrook). All of a sudden, down the trail comes a BMW X3 with California plates. Yes, down the trail.<\/p>\n
I quickly pull my kids and dog off the trail as they drive past. The woman in the passenger seat smiles and waves wholeheartedly. My five year old asks \u201cDaddy, why are they driving on the trail?\u201d And I answer that they shouldn\u2019t be. He then asks, “why is she waiving at us?\u201d I respond that it’s because they are clueless.<\/p>\n
My kid then asks, \u201cwill they go to jail?\u201d I say \u201cNo. I bet they are going sledding.\u201d Yep. They somehow found their way around the Gorgoza pond, made it through the barriers that supposedly stop road traffic on the trail, and found their way out onto the road. They then headed down the road and pulled into the Gorgoza sledding hill parking lot.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve seen a lot of head scratchers in my time time around Park City, but I\u2019ve never seen a BMW on a 7 foot wide trail before.<\/p>\n
Leaving Gorgoza, all I could think is that maybe UDOT almost had it right when they proposed a road next to the Rail Trail along 248. Instead, maybe they should have proposed that tourists drive the trails and leave the roads to locals.<\/p>\n
I\u2019d probably be OK with that trade-off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
