Solis is an easy, out-and-back hike on State Trust Lands North Price Block in Utah, managed by the State Land Board. The route is about 1.7 miles long, rising roughly 70 feet from a low point of 6,063 feet to a high of 6,136 feet. It's a short walk with almost no climb, which makes it an easy addition to a longer outing in the area. For the most comfortable conditions, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Price put May highs around 71°F and September highs around 77°F, while July averages about 90°F. Bikes are allowed on the natural surface, but horses are not. The trail is close to several other routes and destinations. Alan's Alley and Wyatt's Way are both about 0.4 miles away, and the Knot Pete's Rim mountain biking trail is about 0.4 miles off. Climbers can find Wood Hill about 5.3 miles away.
