Mill Creek is a moderate out-and-back hike in Utah's State Trust Lands North St. George Block, managed by the State Land Board. The route runs about 5.3 miles, with a total elevation gain of 388 feet. It starts at a low point of about 3,075 feet and rises to a high of roughly 3,478 feet. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from the nearby St George weather station show October highs around 79°F with lows near 47°F, and April highs around 75°F. That station sits about 620 feet lower, so temperatures on the trail run a little cooler. Washington Hollow and Mustang Pass are both within a mile, and the Mustang Pass Trail is about a mile away. Red Cliffs Campground is roughly 7 miles off.
