Hoof It is an easy out-and-back hike in Utah, about 0.8 miles from the town of Summit Park. The route is roughly 2.5 miles long, with a one-way climb of about 886 feet from a low point of 6,924 feet to a high of 7,883 feet. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Park City show July highs around 80°F with lows near 53°F, and the station sits about 1,000 feet lower than the trail's high point, so temperatures up top run cooler. The No Worries and Moose Camp hikes both start within a third of a mile. Red Pine Lake, about 4.6 miles away, offers fishing, and Jordan Pines Campground, about 6.4 miles out, is the closest place to camp.
