Sorensen’s Resort established in 1926 is popular stop along the Hope Valley Fall color route located at the junction of Hwy 88 and Hwy 89. There is a trail head near here that takes one on a 3 mile hike out to a overlook of the valley.
My friends and I had intended to find the trail and hike out, but we got side tracked photographing the cabins and Fall Color here . In the end we ran out of time.
There is a restaurant that is open for lunch and dinner here too. It was doing brisk business when we were here.

    1. …a wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government, and this is necessary to close the circle of our felicity. – Thomas Jefferson
