Jacob’s Ladder

Description: This trail climbs from Corner Canyon or the top of Suncrest Drive. Half a dozen people have lost the trail on the way down from Lone Peak in 2014, cut down into Utah Valley too soon, and called for rescue when they got caught in cliffs and waterfalls. SAR volunteers just marked much of the problematic section of the trail with bright pink flagging to hopefully avoid further incidents. This photo shows the trail (to both trailheads) only as far as SAR marked the trail.
