Dry Canyon Trail is a short, out-and-back mountain biking route in Utah's Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, within the Pleasant Grove Ranger District. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail rises from about 7,455 feet to about 7,586 feet over 0.74 miles of riding. It is a hard climb, and the one-way elevation gain is 109 feet, with the high point near the top of the route. The most comfortable months for a visit are typically June through September. A nearby weather station at Sundance records typical July highs around 81°F and lows near 58°F, while the trail sits roughly 1,000 feet higher, so expect it to run cooler. The Aspen Patch Road mountain biking route and the Timpooneke Road hike both lie about 0.1 mile away. Climbers can head to American Fork Canyon, about 2 miles off, and anglers will find Echo Reservoir about 5 miles away.
