Black Mountain

Black Mountain is a named summit in the Dixie National Forest backcountry near Alton, in the high country between Bryce Canyon and the Paunsaugunt and Table Cliff plateaus. Search turns up no maintained trail, trailhead, or visitor guide tied to this particular peak — it reads as a forested summit picked up by topographic mapping rather than a developed hiking destination.

If you're exploring this stretch of forest, treat Black Mountain as a backcountry landmark best approached with a current topo map and local Forest Service road information rather than as a signed hike. Dixie National Forest land here is generally permissive of dispersed camping and dogs, but confirm current road and land status before heading out, since access in this area is by dirt road rather than a marked route.
