Randolph-Pole is a 2-mile out-and-back hike on natural-surface trail in the Ogden Ranger District of Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest in Utah. The trail rises about 322 feet from 7,560 feet to 7,860 feet, and it is an easy route open from May 15 through November 1. The Forest Service trail is accessible to both bikes and horses. It is not an accessible trail. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Randolph run to highs around 82°F in July, with July and August the driest months at about six wet days each. That station sits roughly 1,600 feet lower than the trail's high point, so temperatures on the trail run cooler. Randolph Creek lies just 0.2 miles away, and Pole Hollow and Six Bit are each about 1.6 miles off. Little Creek Campground is about 10 miles away.
