- Notes
- 3/10/2024 - Needed Microspikes! Adams Canyon Trail in Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest is a scenic trail along the North Fork of Holmes Creek. The route takes you to the 40-foot Adams Waterfall. The trail is one of the most popular hikes in Davis County. The beginning of the route consists of steep switchbacks and plateaus as you work your way into the canyon past the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. Parking is available at the Adams Canyon Trailhead off North Eastside Drive just outside of Layton. Hiking is not permitted above the waterfalls due to slippery, dangerous terrain. During the winter months, hikers suggest having snowshoes or micro-spikes to complete this route.
