The Boulder Mail Trail is a route of incredible beauty and history.  According to Visit Utah, “The Boulder Mail Trail, like several other trails in the Escalante region, has a colorful history.

Well worth your effort.

Little Death Hollow - Wolverine Loop is one of the best day hike loops in Utah. It is certainly worthy of any type of day out, FKT or Not.
