Provo Peak

Wasatch Mountains - Provo City, Utah
Squaw Peak Road

With views of
Provo Peak - 11,069'
Cascade Mountain
Mount Timpanogos
Utah Lake

We started too late to even have a chance of making it to the top before sunset. Remember if you are going to take the Squaw Peak Trail road, that it will take about an hour to drive this 4WD road to the base.

To get to the base of Provo Peak from Salt Lake City:
Go south on I-15 and take exit 275 which takes you to highway 52 and then to Highway 189. When the road splits, take the one to Bridal Veil Falls. Just after mile marker 9 you will see a road that turns south (right) this should say "Squaw Peak Trail". From there follow the paved road until it ends and then continue along a dirt road (4WD) until you get to the base of the peak. There were lots of other confusing turn offs, so definately find a map if you want to have a positive experience.

We didn't reach the summit, or get anywhere near it. It started getting dark before we even got to the ridge trail.

Im looking for a good trail to go on with jeeps to have some fun and look at the
scenery just wondering if you are able to go on this trail with a jeep or 4
