Will always be Squaw Peak to me. Great hike though.

The Kyhv peak hike is perfect for someone looking to get on top of a mountain with a moderate path up. The first half of the trail is a very slight incline over several bridges. The view looking up at the rock formations on either side of the canyon are amazing. The trail splits and then the steepness increases as you navigate through a path dense with trees. The actual peak is fantastic! Great views of Utah county with bigger mountains to the east as a nice backdrop. Great hike with amazing views that isn’t too long or difficult. (I finished the roundtrip hike in about 4hrs, spending about 20min of that at the peak)

If you want an amazing view then this is the hike! The hike was about 8 miles but it was so worth it once you were up there with amazing views of both the mountains behind you and the valley below you.
