October 20, 2015 This is wonderful sub-16 mile loop that starts at the King Nature Park. From the park, you can run the nature park trail until you pick up the main Green Canyon trail. At approximately 2.5 miles from the start, you will turn off the main Green Canyon trail to access the Preston Valley trail. This trail climbs up and over the ridge where you can either head toward Beirdneau Peak or down to connect with the Wind Caves trail. For this particular adventure, I opted to head down to the Wind Caves trail, cross Highway 89 to Guinavah - Malibu Campground, and pick up the River Trail. Once on the River Trail, you are able to follow it all the way to the mouth of Logan Canyon where it connects with the Bonneville Shoreline Trail (BST). Simply finish the loop by returning to the mouth of Green Canyon via the BST.
