Highlights:
The hike along the Nabob loop starts at the Silver Lake Village ticket office, makes a short climb along the Homestake Lift then cuts to the west and climbs a ridge toward the Wasatch Express Lift. From the ridge there are excellent views to the southwest. The loop then continues counter-clockwise back toward the starting point through a forest of hardwoods. The elevation change is roughly 500 feet (250′ up and 250′ back down.)
