Buffalo Peak Trail
Buffalo Peak Trail is an out-and-back trail where you may see wildflowers located near Provo, Utah.
Hike to Summit of Buffalo Peak
Drive up Provo Canyon and turn right on Squaw Peak Road. Follow the road til you reach the T in the road and head left on Road 027. Follow it 2.9 miles to the unmarked trail head. It is located next to a wooden fence on the right of the road and next to a sign about fire and wildlife safety. Park the car just on the side of the road. The hike is .5 miles to the summit and .5 back. The tra...
Rock Climb in Rock Canyon
Rock Canyon, unsurprisingly, has a ton of great, local rock climbing routes for those in the Provo area.
The marked location is for the parking lot. Once you're parked, head into the canyon. You will start to see bolts and anchors—and, depending on when you go, climbers—a few minutes in.
There are 451 climbs (!!!) in Rock Canyon, including trad, top rope, and bouldering, with the majority bein...
Hike Squaw Peak

If you are confused when the start to th...

In the winter the mountains are covered in snow and the path is well packed down due to the volume of people that are hiking. After about a mile of hiking, you will enter the more dense part of the canyon with lots of vegetation. The river was mostly covered in snow, but some parts were still flowing.
The Ro...
Hike to Buckley's Abandoned Mine
Once you reach the mine it's gated but you can slide in. Follow the main tunnel a hundred or so feet back and climb the 75 foot ladder up to the second level. You can then make your way back out to the cliff face where there is another gate to the outside. That gate is a little trickier to squeeze through but it's a great spot for a campfire on the other side. Bring some wood and mallows to toa...
