Millvue Peak Trail is a short, out-and-back hike in the Salt Lake Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest in Utah, about 0.68 miles long with a total elevation gain of 769 feet. The route climbs from a low point of 8,135 feet to a high of 8,918 feet on Millvue Peak, and the entire trip covers about 1.4 miles. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical July averages from the nearby Alta weather station run around 73°F for highs and 50°F for lows, while winter highs stay near 30°F. That station sits at about the same elevation as the peak.
