Hike the East Temple Saddle Loop
This adventure is a strenuous 4-mile (3-5 hour) loop into the backcountry of ZNP and is not recommended for families or those with a fear of heights.

There is no marked trail, but there should be a small path that leads down through some trees into the bowl on the other side.
There is no official...
