Trail Information

Highlights

Winding its way through the Mill Canyon OHV Complex in the Wasatch Mountain State Park, this easy off-road trail will guide you from Midway over to American Fork Canyon via Lower Mill Canyon. Once it opens in the springtime, OHV enthusiasts flock to the area to explore the miles of trails that the Wasatch Mountains have to offer. Although Baker Fork Road is maintained, it provides access to incredible views and many other trails carrying in difficulty such as Forest Lake and Mineral Basin. Whether you are looking to kill a few hours, or need to get away for the weekend, this mountainous OHV complex is full of trails to escape the heat and get you away from the rush of the city.

This is open from Midway! Very pretty drive. The road had a little more damage than expected after the last winter and gets rougher the farther you go in. Probably closer to a 2 rather than a 1. Very scenic with a handful of camping spots around the area. Keep in mind, this road is open but the road connecting to AF canyon is still closed. You will pass a "Road Closed Ahead" sign at Waypoint 4 but you can still follow the road to Mineral Basin. Just know you have to come back through Midway.
