Butler Fork Trailhead
Butler Fork Trailhead launches into a narrow, scenic canyon with a rushing creek, granite walls, aspens and wildflowers — great for intimate landscape and waterscape shots. Visit spring for cascades and late September–October for vivid aspen color; sunrise and golden hour offer soft side-light on canyon walls. Trailhead is roadside on S Big Cottonwood Canyon Rd; parking is limited so arrive early on weekends. No special permits for day hikes; trail can be muddy after storms.
