High Meadows is an easy out-and-back hike in Utah, about 0.9 miles from the town of Gogorza. The route is short, just 0.3 miles, and climbs only 11 feet from the low point at 6,417 feet to the high point at 6,446 feet. It works well as a quick stop or a way to stretch your legs before or after another outing in the area. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from the nearby Park City weather station put July highs around 80°F with lows near 53°F, while winter highs stay in the low 30s. The station sits about 450 feet higher than the trail, so temperatures at the hike may run slightly warmer. Several other spots are close by. The Pinebrook Southeast Perimeter Trail is just 0.1 mile away, and the Powerline hike is about 0.4 mile off. The Wasatch Back climbing area lies roughly 3.6 miles away, and Red Pine Lake, a fishing spot, is about 5.2 miles away.
