STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION ...... Mill D North

 
Skiing Reynolds Peak


Mill D North is located about half way up Big Cottonwood Canyon in the "Reynolds Flat". This trail serves as a popular hiking, biking, skiing, and snowshoeing route to destinations such as Reynolds Peak, Little Water Peak, Desolation Lake, Dog Lake and Mill Creek Canyon. Whether it is fall, winter, summer or spring, Mill D North is one of the more beautiful trails in Big Cottonwood Canyon.

Mill D North Destinations

There are several Destinations in Mill D North. Around 2 miles or so there is a split in the trails. The trail that go's left heads up to Dog Lake, Reynolds Peak, and Little Water Peak. The trail that heads right go's to Desolation lake and the Park City Ridgeline.

 

The trail that heads to the LEFT-(Dog lake, Reynolds Peak, Little Water Peak)

1. Dog Lake-About half a mile or so up from the division is Dog Lake. From the lake you can go left(south) and head up to Reynolds Peak. If you head right(north) you'll hit the Mill Creek/Big Cottonwood ridgeline. If you head east on the ridge you will, after a mile or so, hit Little Water Peak.

2. Reynolds Peak- Reynolds Peak is one of the more senic peaks in Big Cottonwood because of it's centralized location in the Wasatch. In the summer the trail can be somewhat bushy and miss leading. From Dog Lake head south and you should hit a meadow. Hit the North rigde and continue south till your at the summit.

3. Little Water Peak-
Easier to find in the winter, this not so popular peak can offer some solitude when the destination shots are crowded.
