Description

Added by Eric Bennett

Bridal Veil in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache is a huge picturesque waterfall (you will probably get wet).

Heading on Provo Canyon Rd the waterfall is just on the right hand side. You will see a sign that says "Bridal Veil" to turn in and park at the falls. At the falls you can hike up a bit to get closer to the waterfall but you will get sprayed quite a bit. Usually a few people there take photos at bottom. The falls also create a great spot to relax and hang out for a bit. It's never a bad idea to bring a bite with you.

The falls are also a great place to stop off at when heading into the canyon to do some hiking, backpacking or climbing. To get an up close look, it isn't a strenuous or challenging hike, it's more of a relaxed place where you can snap a few pics and hang out.

During the winter on the other hand, the falls completely freeze over which attracts quite a few people to do ice pick climbing.

Easy hike/walk. Usually you'll find people look at the falls with you. I love taking my dog and just walking around the area. there is a little stream (not the river) coming from the falls where we made some paper boats, colored them, then raced them down the stream. It was fun! (we cleaned up the boats after of course...)

There's no better way than spending a hot summer day floating down a river with your friends.

Ice Climbing Pipe Dream

With a couple weeks of cold temps this pipe fed ice flow comes in nicely. It is WI 3-4 depending on thickness. Grab a small grill, some friends and drinks and get in a few ice laps. Most of the routes can be set up for top roping.Park on the north side of the road roughly a mile from the mouth of Provo Canyon. There will be a small grey building off the side of the road leading you to a bridge ...

The hike is .5 miles to the summit and .5 back. The tra...

As you pass Vivian Park, you'll continue for 3 miles on South Fork Rd until you reach Big Springs Park. Continue up to the Upper level parking and the trailhead will be in the SW corner. When we arrived early one Saturday, we found 4 or 5 tents scattered in camp sights ...
