Hiking Rock Canyon

Perhaps some of the best hiking to be found in Utah is hiking up Rock Canyon. It is a 6-mile trail that begins at the end of North Temple Drive in Provo. This trail travels up Rock Canyon to the Rock Canyon Campground on Squaw Peak Road.

I went on this hike as a little girl and love that I can take my kids here when we visit Utah. I absolutely love the river, the rock formations, and the beauty of the trees.

All of the kids loved the hike. We made it up a little past the first water fountain. It was a slow pace but what can you expect with kids.

Andrea brought Odyssey and it was good company to have her along. She surprised us by coming to Provo. When we arrived Sunday night, it was a great to see her at home again. It has been far too long since we have seen her. We miss her and hate that she lives so far away. My kids love Odyssey and often wanted turns to hold her lease. All of our vacation the kids were playing with her.

Rachel absolutely refused to sit in the child backpack even with the bribery of tic tacs. My arms were tired from carrying her even though she is a small, petite child. She is a cutie!
