Remember if you are going to take the Squaw Peak Trail road, that it will take about an hour to drive this 4WD road to the base.

To get to the base of Provo Peak from Salt Lake City:
Go south on I-15 and take exit 275 which takes you to highway 52 and then to Highway 189. When the road splits, take the one to Bridal Veil Falls. Just after mile marker 9 you will see a road that turns south (right) this should say "Squaw Peak Trail". From there follow the paved road until it ends and then continue along a dirt road (4WD) until you get to the base of the peak. There were lots of other confusing turn offs, so definately find a map if you want to have a positive experience.

The light was so bland that I didn't get any real pictures, that means I need to go back.
It took us about 1.5 to 2 hours to summit from the parking area.

I climbed Lone Peak that day. As we made it back down close to sunset we could see the clouds coming in along with the lighting. Indeed two people were killed that night. If my story is correct it was a young couple that decided to sleep on the summet or something like that. Rumor is that they found them holding hands. I've since been back and there is a plaque on Lone Peak as a memorial. Don't climb mountains in Lighting clouds.

Thanks for putting these pictures on the web. I'll be in town for Thanksgiving and you've helped make my plans.

I have been looking for a very long time but for some reason I cannot seem to find the name of the mountain directly to the right of Timp if you are facing Timp from Orem or Provo. Any answer would be very much appreciated, thanks.
