This peak is officially called "Willard Fin Peak." I came face-to-face with a badger on the way down. I’ve never seen a badger before, and I was shocked when he woke up and started running towards me— I shouted and clapped my hands and he turned around and started trotting down the trail. I followed him downhill for about a kilometer before he left the trail. This peak is very recognizable from the freeway, and I’m glad I made it to the top ⛰

The Willard Fin (6,579 ft) is a prominent feature along the foothills above Willard, UT. There are so many mines in the area, that the Fin also has the nickname of "lightning rock", for the amount of high metal content under it in the earth. Besides that, the Fin offers a great hike with amazing views all around. Willard Bay to the West, Willard Canyon below, and Grizzly Peak to the East. There is nothing technical about this hike, so it's great to bag a fairly easy peak. The best time of year to hike this is Spring and Fall. Summer is extremely hot with no water or shade.
