Mirror Lake - Uinta Wasatch Cache National Forest
Reviewed Jul. 26, 2020

Beautiful Destination

I have backpacked in the Uintas for several years and have driven past this lake many times, but never stayed there. I am glad we did.

The good:

  1. Campsites are well kept.
  2. Hiking trails around the lake and from the campground take you to some beautiful places. We backpacked one night to Bonnie Lake.
  3. Fish are stocked so the fishing is good.
  4. Kayaking and canoeing are great in this lake.
  5. No cell service.
  6. Cooler temperatures. About 20 degrees cooler than the Salt Lake Valley.

The not so good:

  1. Crowded on the weekends especially.
  2. The campsites are closer together than I normally like.
  3. People don’t take great care of the area. Lots of trash, fishing garbage, dead fish people leave, etc.
  4. Pit toilets could be cleaned and maintained more frequently.
