Hike the North Summit of Mount Timpanogos
To reach the north summit of Timpanogos you start out just like you would if you were going to the main summit. There are 2 different trail options to choose from; The Aspen Grove trail near Sundance Ski resort or the Timpanooke trail through American Fork Canyon. I will put the start point on the map at the Aspen Grove Trailhead. The trail is extremely easy to follow. It is a gradual incline u...
Hike Mount Timpanogos via Aspen Grove
The Aspen Grove trail is shorter but a bit steeper than the Timpanooke Trail. This usually means that fewer people take this route, and on an extremely popular mountain like Timpanogos, that’s a good thing. The trail is 14 miles round trip with an elevation gain of 5,140 feet.
The hike begins at the Aspen Grove parking lot and shares a trailhead with Stewart Falls. Take the trail heading west ...

But anytime during the mid summer you will encounter amazing Indian Paintbrush, Lupine, and other colorful wildflowers.
After entering the mouth of American Fork Canyon you will pass a fee station (...
Mount Timpanogos via Timpanogos Trail #053
The Timpooneke trailhead is located in American Fork Canyon, next to the Timpooneke Campground. There is a $6 fee to enter the canyon, unless you have a National Park Pass with which you get in free. On the weekends, it may be difficult to find parking at the Timpooneke Campground, so arrive early.
