Baker Fork Road

Closed for the season! See you next year!

Trail itself isn't difficult, however it is a scenic, less traveled way to get to AF canyon from the Midway side. The trail brought some amazing colors if you time it right in the fall. Would definitely recommend running it from Midway to AF.

Very simple trail that takes you further into the canyon to the Weber area. Very pretty to do in the fall as the leaves are changing. Several quite places along the trail for lunch stops as well.

This trail is closed for the season! See you in 2022!

Ran this trail today, it is gorgeous as usual. I would bump the difficulty to a 2, the road has become a lot more rocky and washed out compared to just last year. Still easy enough for pretty much any stock vehicle.

I came up from American Fork canyon. There were a few mountain bikers in the area. Instead of turning left at waypoint 4, I turned right to go towards Cascade Springs. There were a couple guided atv's tours (3 vehicle groups) and some solo. The roads are a bit softer in places. So it kicks up a bunch of dust. I marked on the picture of the map where I turned off from waypoint 4 then a couple other turns that led me to Cascade Springs. Along the way there's a fun little pond crossing. It was about 18" ish deep. South of there you'll find a newly paved road where you can turn left to go towards the lower parking lot of Cascade Springs and eventually to Soldier Hollow in South Midway or right to the upper parking lot of Cascade Springs and eventually connect with the Alpine Loop that will take you to the either Provo or American Fork Canyons. Beautiful scenery all along the way with overlooks into the Heber Valley. Tons of little off shoots as well. Some marked with no vehicle signs though.

Really nice scenic trail, easy driving. Suitable for any stock SUV or crossover. We stopped a bunch of times and took in the views. The greatest hazard on the trail were the other users doing 50 mph around blind corners. There were tons of little offshoots onto tighter FS roads that I'd like to come back to explore. The other major route out was Cummings Parkway, which looks like there's a really nice section with no trees that I'd like to go back and check out. There's lots of dispersed camping along the way that could fit large size groups with multiple vehicles.

This trail is a very accessible as well out of Midway in the opposite direction and is heavily used by the OHV community. I have seen a few cars on the road coming from Midway, but they are sure to be uneasy as the reach the top of the route near the summit at Pole Line pass. From the Midway side to the to the Pole Line Summit. it took us an hours, so you might plan more time as needed. There is good water as you drive coming up from the East and a few larger obstacles that might push this review to Moderate, but should be pretty easy for most users. There are lots of fantastic views, animal life, and cliff drop offs to enjoy. I highly recommend this trial and further trail insights from TJ Bosworth.
