Looking to take a nice break on your I-80 drive? Want a lovely destination not far from Salt Lake City? The Bear River Greenway is a lovely spot to visit in Evanston.

Directions: From I-80, take Exit 5 and head north off the exit. Turn right on Bear River Drive (not quite a mile from the exit). Turn right in a couple blocks under the Bear River Greenway sign; follow the road under the bridge and into the parking area. Once there, stroll around to your heart's content on the paths and around the little lake. Eventually, make your way to the north and enjoy the lovely Bear River. When you spy the Seated Leg Press on the way towards the bridge, stand on the northeast corner of the cement pad and align yourself to the second, further away rock gap in the river. Take 8 or so steps towards the gap to find yourself standing on a flat topped boulder. The northwest corner of the boulder has a bunch of smaller rocks that hide an opening underneath. Please replace box completely underneath the boulder before placing the smaller rocks back around (to hold it in place in case moving water reaches the rock).
