Tucked in the Wasatch Mountain Range and American Fork Canyon lies the Deer Creek Dry Creek trailhead and Box Elder Peak. Looks are deceiving as this hike up to Box Elder Peak is 5,000 feet of elevation gain and 12 miles out and back. Box Elder sits at an elevation of 11,101 feet. This day hike is straight up from the beginning. Be prepared for an all day leg workout right out of the parking lot. Box Elder Peak is a lightly trafficked trail and gives 360 degree views of the Wasatch Mountain Range, including Mount Timpanogos to the south, Lone Peak, Pfeifferhorn and White Baldy to the north. The summit could be entirely yours! The view at the top rivals any in the entire Wasatch Range. Enjoy soaking your demolished feet in Deer Creek after the pounding they take from the descent. Cool and rinse off in Tibble Fork Reservoir once you have completed this all day grueling hike. Tibble Fork Reservoir is just minutes away from Box Elder Peak trailhead. Box Elder Peak's pyramid shape can easily be seen from Salt Lake City's valley floor, making it a desire to be hiked.
