Peterson Hollow is a hard out-and-back hike in Utah's Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, within the Logan Ranger District. The route stretches about 8 miles and gains roughly 1,350 feet, carrying you from a low point of about 7,000 feet to a high of around 8,366 feet. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail is natural-surface with horses and bikes allowed. The trail is not accessible. It stays open from June 1 through October 31, which makes it a late-summer and early-fall destination. The climb is a fair amount of work, so plan on a full day on foot rather than a short outing. Several other routes sit close by. Steam Mill and Shortys Cutoff Trail are each about 1.6 miles away, and White Pine Canyon is about 1.8 miles away. For an overnight base, Lewis M. Turner Campground is about 5 miles off.
