awesome. I think I'm going to go check it out right now

Did you find it? Kind of hard to find if you don't know what your looking for. This is my new "in town" place to go. It has some challenging areas and some fun stuff to climb, a small area to fly through and some mud as well. Great find!!!!!!!

Cool to hear many people have been able to find this...Its got some fun and in some cases interesting obstacles to climb over/around/thru.

I don't know if I mentioned it before, but you can also go across the freeway and find some interesting stuff at the paraglider launch place.

I dropped by there to check it out for a few minutes on my way home from work today, It's pretty cool....

The playground sounds like a good name for it

that area used to be a lot of fun before they ruined it with houses on the benches. All of East Draper was open. Can you still go up the canyon back in there? THat has probably been paved and developed too.

Nope, The Steeplechase development and others have filled Corner Canyon. There was a 4+ trail there called Jacob's Ladder that even had some norther Utah slickrock. You can still see that part, above some huge homes. That was one of the crappiest deals ever. Draper city closed all the trails claiming harm to the environment, then sold it to be bulldozed by homebuilders. Disgusting example of folks using "green" as an excuse to take stuff away. I hate the Draper council. Bunch of lying B.S.ers. They all claim to be so religious they can't have bars in their city, but look at what they do.

Its thursday and I'm thinking of going out there today after work. If anyone else want to join it, just send me an email or IM. I should be out there about 5:30 ish.
