Fogg Hill is a hard hike in Idaho's Caribou-Targhee National Forest, within the Palisades Ranger District. The trail is an out-and-back that climbs from about 7,700 feet to roughly 8,760 feet, with a total elevation gain of about 960 feet over a round trip of about 8.2 miles. The Forest Service manages the land, and the route is open year-round. The trail is natural-surfaced and allows both horses and bikes, so it works for riders and pack animals as well as hikers. That makes it a flexible option for a longer outing with a horse or a mountain bike. Pole Canyon Ridge 174 lies about half a mile away, and Elbow Fork and Thompson Peak are both within about 2 miles. For an overnight base, Mike Harris campground is about 3 miles off.
