Getting There 

The most common approach (and the approach for the hiking route and the north face) is via Dry Fork. To get to Dry Fork, you've got two options: The first (and easiest) is to take the Squaw Peak road from Provo Canyon to Rock Canyon Campground. (This road is paved for 4.6 miles and unpaved for 5 miles). Keep driving past the campground for .5 mile and park when you see an obvious trail coming in from the left. There is a small sign there, too.

The second way: Hike up Rock Canyon for 3 miles to Rock Canyon Campground. Go past the campground to the Squaw Peak Road. Turn right on the road and walk for half a mile until you see the above-mentioned trail coming in from the left.
