August 18th, a couple of forum members (puppetz007, thardy, and myself) are going to head up American Fork Canyon and drive Mary Ellen Gulch, check out the mining ruins and eat lunch on top, then exit via Pole Line Pass to Midway (and up to the Gateway Grill in Kamas for burgers if time allows). We're meeting at the Chevron in Highland at 8am and will caravan up the canyon from there.
I haven't been on this particular trail yet, but I've been on others in the canyon, and I don't expect this to be any more difficult than Forest Lake or the hairier sections of Rattlesnake. Four wheel drive and 31s should get you through, but this is a trail, not a road, and the possibility of body damage exists. Sliders and skids will be helpful, if you don't have yours on yet we'll just take a little more time spotting you.
We are a family friendly crew. We bring our wives and kids, we don't drink on the trail, we Tread Lightly, and we enjoy the outdoors and the company of friends. Please post up here on RME4x4 if you're coming so we get everybody on the same page. See you on the mountain!
