Summary:
Very nice ride, not for beginners, but everyone else can enjoy it. No serious steeps. Nice long steady-grade downhill ride. I bomb it with my stiff tail with no worries. It gets shaky over long patches of gravel to melon-sized rocks. I sometimes break away from the trail and mob through tall grasses and meadows (watch for hidden obstacles!!). There are several bridges and shallow streams to fly through. Plenty of tall trees provide shade and mossy areas. After 4 or 5 stream crossings, look out for hikers. The path widens and is gravely.

Recommended Route:
For a long mellow ride up, Provo Canyon, take the Squaw Peak turn off up to were the paved road splits (2-3 miles up)and take the left fork. After a couple miles of mostly uphill dirt road, there's a scenic lookout pinnacle. Continue downhill now for a couple of miles, pass some gates to your right, then about a half mile later, you'll see the singletrack trail that crosses the dirt road. Bomb down! IF you want to add technical challenge to your work out, start from the mouth of Rock Canyon, and will yourself up the route. It's tough, but many people have done it without stopping.

Summary:
A good trail for running. Nice steady incline. I haven't fallen over on it, yet. Reminds me of that old Scottish credo: Heed doon, arse oot.

Recommended Route:
Hey, I've never biked this thing, but I've run it, and plan to again during a visit to Provo in a couple of weeks. Is it blocked by snow? Are there mt. lions up there? (I had the feeling I was being watched when I ran it a couple of years ago). Is there a cut through over to Sundance?

I like the shoreline trail there on Y mtn, but the canyon's special. It's incredible to have access to such wonders when visiting Provo.

Summary:
I reviewed this trail ayear or two ago. I have ridden it numerous times since then but I had to review again. The last two weeks (end of sept) have been beautiful up there. Go ride it while you can. get out of the valley away from the people.Pedal till your lungs want to pop. It is tough riding but see what you can do.

Recommended Route:
start at parking lot behind LDS temple and go east young man

Had a really good time last week up at Deer Valley with my 13 year old son riding the lifts up then rolling down.
