One of the steepest hikes that I have been on. High elevation gain. Heading through Rock Canyon and back around the mountain to the peak is a good route to take. Shaded for most of the hike. Incredible view and thousand foot cliff at the end. 7 miles round trip. Clear, well-beaten trail. Beautiful mountain meadows as well as forested pine, aspen, and oak areas. Wildlife includes turkeys, squirrels, lizards, and garter snakes. From the top: A clear view of Provo, East Provo, Freedom, and Shingle Mill Peaks and a stunning view of the north side of the Y Mountain. Cascade Mountain and & Timpanogos are also in clear view, not mention all of Utah Valley and beyond to the West. Incredible hike: a must-do.
