Description

Utah's Jordan River runs between Utah Lake and the Great Salt Lake and is an extremely important water source for the Great Salt Lake. This guidebook defines river access points for recreational boaters on this urban water trail. Divided into 18 sections across Utah, Salt Lake, and Davis Counties, this book identifies boat put-in and take-out sites and the connecting roads between those locations. Each water trail section is supported by a narrative and a map making it easy for enthusiasts to find the section of the Jordan River they are interested in. This book is the outcome of the author's many volunteer adventures introducing the river to boating enthusiasts. The Jordan River Parkway's paved path is included as it is a great way to scout the river before getting on the water. This 120-page book is in full color and includes 107 images. When the State of Utah developed master plans for the state's sovereign rivers, he engaged to present the recreational users' perspective because identifying locations where infrastructure is needed is a key element in the planning-funding cycle. Water trails are a challenge because enthusiasts need to know where to put-in and where to take-out and the connecting roads between those locations. There was no definitive guide showing enthusiasts how to do this, so the author researched the river and began leading group events introducing enthusiasts to Utah's Jordan River. This guidebook is the outcome of many volunteer events the author organized to stay active outdoors in nature.

Author Biography:

Elliott Mott has over 40 years of experience helping sports enthusiasts enjoy the outdoors. As a volunteer, he has organized over a thousand bike rides, hikes, backpacking trips, and kayak tours. He crafted maps for his bike rides as a tool to keep riders on course, and later for river tours identifying put-in and take-out sites and the roads connecting those locations. To date his database includes 23000 miles of bicycle trails and 560 river water trail miles. Mott is an advocate for active transportation solutions, and the preservation of green space in urban areas. Other books by the author include "Cycling Possibilities," "Jordan River Water Trail & Bike Path," and "Bear River and its Water Trail."
