    Lyman KOA

    Nice KOA, just missing a couple minor items

    Overall, a very nice KOA. Picnic tables are all new and maintained, new fire rings. I stayed in tent camping, and it was grassy and level.

    Lots of drive thru spots for electric and hookups.

    The staff greeted me warmly. The office was clean and maintained.

    Bathrooms were clean, but a tad dated. But they were servicable, smelled clean.

    Pool was being repaired at the beginning of .e.orial Day weekend. A bit of a bummer. Also, there waa no firewood that I saw for sale.

    The grounds were about half full.

    The other slight downside was I-80 noise. I made a video so you can hear the noise. Its about 1 mile away.

    I would stay here again!

    Washington Lake Campground

    Wonderful developed RV campground in the Uinta's

    Great RV campground in the high Unitas.  Roads and spaces are paved.  This is dry camping, however as there are no hook-ups.  The vault toilets are clean.  Spaces are far enough apart that you don't feel like you are sitting on top of one another.  A few spaces have direct access to the lake but all of the spaces are nice and have some form of shade from the surrounding trees.  The nights we were there, everyone was respectful and noise diminished around 10:00 PM.  Will definitely stay here again.

    Cobblerest Campground — Uinta Wasatch Cache National Forest

    Very nice campsites, hosts were super nice

    I did an overnight here on Memorial Day weekend at campsite 13. The campsites were very nice, there are 2 pit restrooms, each campsite has a fire pit with a heavy duty grill top and a picnic table. There were plenty of flat spots for our tent. The only gripes I had are that it's right next to the road, and the river is pretty shallow and, as far as I can tell, there aren't any fish to be had unless you walk up or down river, maybe. Oh, and buy your firewood in Kamas. It's $7 a bundle from the hosts, $3 a bundle in Kamas, and you go through it faster than you think. Other than that, it's a beautiful area.

    Browne Lake Group Sites

    Secluded and off the main path

    First thing I noticed about Browne Lake was that most of the campsites were pretty nice, with plenty of trees and well placed amenities like the picnic table and a fire ring. Second, you are not right on top of your neighbors, sites have a nice distance between them so you have the privacy you need. It has vault toilets scattered around the grounds and were well taken care of. Firewood has been picked over pretty good, so you can either drive, not to far to forage for some or by a bundle from the nearby camp host for $7. The scenery around the lake and campground is gorgeous and there are plenty of trails to hike or ride an ATV. At $14 a night it is a bit pricey but worth the money for what you get. It's $4 for an extra vehicle. The lake itself is small and does not have a boat launch, all I saw on the lake was kayaks and some fishing pontoons. There are no close places for any food so pack accordingly, also no cell coverage. Overall this was a great little site that I will go back to. Leave it better than you found it. Enjoy!

    Smith-Morehouse Campground

    Ranger Review: Primus Tupike Two-burner Stove at Wasatch National Forest Campground: Smith and Morehouse

    Campground Review

    This is a gorgeous mountain setting with perfect Summer temps. 

    Pros

    • Near water; a beautiful river and the reservoir of the same name
    • It’s not far from civilization (under 30 minutes) if you need supplies, but it feels remote and secluded once you get there
    • Basic amenities for a National Forest Campground are well-maintained (trash receptacles, toilets, water, fire rings, picnic tables)
    • Camp Host on site (I guess this could be a pro or con depending on who you get [smile], but at least you know who to check in with); Camp host also notes names and dates on each camp site which added a sense of organization to the location
    • Peaceful wildlife, like deer (see “cons” for another option here)
    • Variety of vegetation (many different types of trees and wildflowers, etc.)
    • Near other US Forest disbursed camping in case you need some time before or after your stay here

    Cons

    • Campsites are a bit on the small side and are close together (this is largely overcome by the lush vegetation; helps it feel private)
    • This is bear country, so the signs say (wait, is that really a “con” or something unexpected when you’re camping in the forest? Just be aware)
    • Can be crowded/booked in those lovely summer months

    Product Review

    I’m a happy Ranger for The Dyrt and from time to time I get to test and review products that may help make camping life even more awesome. Today, I am reviewing the Primus Tupike Two Burner Stove

    (https://primus.us/products/tupike-stove-4)

    I’m especially happy to review this product now because we had some bumps getting started (happy to report a happy ending here, details below and in videos). 

    Pros

    • Beautiful, solid, well-made stove (pans don’t move and neither does the stove)
    • Easy to use (set up is a breeze, cleaning is made easy by its removable stainless drip tray, easy to connect to larger propane tank or use with smaller fuel cans)
    • Nice features that are there if you need them, but they’re not in your way if you don’t (e.g., the wind flaps actually have a magnetic feature that stay closed if you don’t use them, the legs can be folded down when not needed)
    • Love the igniters (appreciate not needing another tool to create the flame)
    • The flames are highly adjustable which means, in part, that I can cook any type of food perfectly (even delicate things like crepes or other items that need to simmer at a specific temperature)
    • Nice size for a camp stove (under 10 pounds, large enough to handle standard size pots and pans); not a backpacking stove but Primus has you covered there too
    • Great customer service (the company quickly responded to our needs when it arrived with a broken part, felt like they would have helped us with any issues along the way; very knowledgable)
    • Stove arrived quickly (as did replacement part/s)

    Cons

    • When the stove arrived, the sticker said it had been inspected/tested, yet it had a couple issues: 
    • 1. A plastic piece in the handle was broken. I could still use it, but it was wobbly and obviously needed to be fixed and 
    • 2. The igniters would not consistently light and I wasted gas and was annoyed to have to reach for a flame to manually light it. After some time and further inspection, we noticed that the igniters were adjusted differently. We took a chance and manually adjusted the ‘spark arm’ on the left burner to more closely match the angle of the one on the right (the right one lit much more often) and after some adjustment in this area, it worked like a charm…lights first time every time now! So if you have this issue and feel comfortable, you may want to try making an adjustment. If not, I’m confident the company will exchange it for you because as they did tell us, it should light easily and consistently. 

    Final Analysis

    • Anything you can do with a 2-burner stove at home, you can do camping with the Primus Tupike. 
    • Construction is top-notch; stable, beautiful, easy to use and clean.
    • Customer service is excellent.
