State Route 92, or the Alpine Loop Scenic Byway, is a scenic byway in Utah County, Utah that runs from I-15 near Highland, Utah to US-189 in Provo Canyon. The route is approximately 27 miles long and is the only road with access to Sundance Ski Resort.

[edit] Route

The route runs east from Highland and up American Fork Canyon, where it enters the Uinta National Forest. Shortly after, it passes Timpanogos Cave National Monument, a famous group of caves buried in the side of the canyon. The route continues up the canyon and bends to the south where it passes the east side of Mount Timpanogos. After passing Sundance Ski Resort, the road links up with US-189 in Provo Canyon.[1]
