Provo Canyon (North Fork)

Elevation Profile

Details

This ride is typically done as part of the larger Alpine Loop ride, it being the ``other side'' of American Fork Canyon. The part of interest here is from the beginning of State Road 80 (i.e. the turn-off to Sundance) to Summit Campground. A very scenic, winding road in the shadow of Mt. Timpanogos. The first 2-3 miles from the turn-off to just past Sundance are pretty tough but past that it is pretty easy going. From the turn-off to Summit Campground is 8.8 miles and 2840 vertical feet.
