The Bonneville Shoreline Trail goes  southwest along the bench.  The Forest Service road goes east up Green Canyon. There is a picnic area on the right just a short walk up the canyon.

Birding: In the lower reaches of Green Canyon Ruffed and Blue (Dusky) Grouse can be seen, as well as chickadees and kinglets. An occasional Common Poor-will or Canyon Wren might be heard. Near the ridge, Clark's Nutcracker and a Golden Eagle or two may be seen.
     Also look for Western Tanager, Chukar, and Lazuli  Bunting. Black-throated Gray, Virginia’s and Orange-crowned Warblers and farther up the canyon, Hammond’s Flycatchers and Hermit Thrush.
