Me and my dad decided to plot our Lone Peak summit hike and checked out the south approach via Schoolhouse Springs. Since it starts in Alpine we invited my sister to come with us since we were right by her.
From I-15 go east on Timpanogos highway, north on Alpine highway, right on 200 north, left on Grove Dr., left on Aspen Cove, left on Aspen Dr.
Good hikes start with good planning

Trying to find Brook's house
At the wooden gate: you can go through it, the road will loop up, or go to the right to a shortcut. We went right.
