Mount Timpanogos Wilderness

Mount Timpanogos Wilderness spans 10,518 acres between American Fork Canyon and Provo Canyon, featuring elevated peaks, dense forests, and alpine meadows.

The United States Forest Service established Mount Timpanogos as a designated wilderness area in 1984 to preserve its natural character and ecological systems.

Native American tribes utilized the mountainous terrain of Mount Timpanogos for seasonal hunting activities before the area became a federal wilderness designation.

Two primary trailheads, Timpooneke and Aspen Grove, provide access to 17 miles of maintained paths leading to the summit at 3,293 meters elevation.

A U.S. Air Force B-25 bomber crash site from 1955 remains visible along a side trail that branches from the main Timpooneke path.
