The Church Fork picnic area is in Mill Creek Canyon just below the Mill Creek Inn restaurant. The area has a combination of family sized and group picnic areas.
The Mount Grandeur Trail starts at the top of the Church Fork Picnic area. This trail is on the North side of Mill Creek Canyon. As such, it has south facing slope face. The vegetation around the trail is of a heartier desert variety than the Desolation Trail.
The Mount Grandeur Trail crosses the Pipeline Trail (a popular trail for mountain bikes) then heads to the top of Mount Grandeur where you find a grand view of the Salt Lake Valley.
