Hike to the Living Room for Sunset

Itinerary tips

• 1Park in the small designated lot on Colorow Road or use overflow street parking near the Natural History Museum of Utah.
• 2Allocate at least 90 minutes for the round-trip hike, accounting for a 1,000-foot elevation gain over approximately 2.5 miles.
• 3Bring a headlamp or a fully charged phone light, as the descent will likely happen in the dark after the sun sets.
• 4Carry at least one liter of water and wear shoes with good traction to navigate the loose gravel and rocky sections near the summit.
• 5Download an offline trail map like AllTrails, as there are several intersecting social paths that can be confusing in the dark.
• 6Pack a light jacket even in summer, as the ridge becomes significantly windier and cooler once the sun drops behind the Oquirrh Mountains.
