Sep 09, 2019 — Mount Aire is a popular summit in the Wasatch Mountains. A trail leads the entire way to its summit. There is a small fee for driving up Mill Creek Canyon Road. This pleasant hike starts through typical Wasatch forest scenery, leading to a saddle just south of Mount Aire. This saddle has some nice views. Switchbacks continue north to the summit, and a final ridge ascent free of trees has some nice views. In addition to the lovely surrounding green hills, of note is the Wildcat Ridge visible to the south.
