Andrew and I decided to go on a hike yesterday and headed up to Millcreek Canyon since it was an odd day (dogs can be off leash on odd days) we didn't pre-plan where we were going to go but it worked out great!
We chose the first trailhead as you drive up the canyon -Pipeline Trailhead.
here's our track log

Elevation graph

Hike stats:
Distance: 1.7 miles (3.4 roundtrip)
Elevation start: 5365 feet
Elevation high: 6039 feet
Elevation gain: 674 feet

As you can see from the elevation graph you gain that 674 feet in the first 0.7 miles pretty much and then levels off for the last mile - which makes the first part decently steep but then you get a long stretch that's easy!


We tried to get her to stand on the pipe, but it wasn't happening ;)
