High Uinta Camping

A great, quiet campsite in the Northern Uintas. About 40 campsites, that are a mix of wooded and lakefront sites. No potable water available. Clean vault toilets available throughout the campground. Easy water access for kayaks and other small watercraft. Lots of ATV trails are nearby so there were quite a few ATVs around camp. About 40 minutes down a dirt road off the main road. Easily passable in any car. Past Hoop Lake the road gets rockier and sandier so higher clearance/4WD necessary.
