700 East is a short, easy out-and-back hike in Utah, about half a mile from the center of Provo. The route is just under a mile long, with a total elevation gain of about 10 feet, so it's a gentle walk that fits easily into a day spent in town. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Provo show May highs around 76°F and October highs around 68°F, while July and August average in the low 90s. Several other outings sit close by. North 700 East and North West Campus Drive are both within a mile, the Southern Wasatch climbing area is about 1.3 miles away, and Mill Race, a paddling spot, is roughly 1.6 miles off.
