Flying Dog is a hard out-and-back hike in Utah, about 1.8 miles from the community of Jeremy Ranch. The route is roughly 12 miles long, with a one-way elevation gain of 911 feet, taking you from a low point of about 6,868 feet to a high of about 7,759 feet. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Park City, which sits about 860 feet lower than the high point, show July highs around 80°F with lows near 53°F, while winter highs stay in the low 30s. The Cobblestone Loop and Cobblestone Trail mountain biking routes are both within half a mile, and the Preserve and Lewis Park Trail hikes are close by.
