A small campground south of Evanston, Wy along Utah 150-Mirror Lake Hwy

Location- 39 miles south of Evanston, Wy in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest of Utah. It is on the east side of Hwy 150 and sits at 9,100'.  There are 15 single site and 6 dbls sites. Reservable with water, sometimes (had it when we were there) and vault toilets.

Some sites aren't level and some sites can become lakes in heavy rain (our friends were in #3 and we almost had to get out the boats!).

Hosts were nice and kept the facilities clean.

Pretty area with the Hayden Fork of the Bear River on the east side of the Campground. Whiskey Creek Trailhead across the Hwy from the CG. Trail leads to Bourbon Lake (yes- this is Utah!).

Beautiful drive from Evanston. Ranger station is about 5 miles north of the CG. Just beyond that is a dump station. Don't remember if there is a sign but it's a hundred yards or so down a little forest road east of 150.

We tried fishing the river by the CG and below the confluence with the East Fork. Caught nothing and saw nothing. 

This is one of those places where you want to have everything you need with you.

 Evanston and Kamas are 40-ish miles away.

Less Frequented Campground in the High Uintas

We stayed for 2 nights at Sulphur Campground back in summer 2018 while wildfire smoke was drifting from a fire south of the Uintas. We had a great time and found Sulphur to be quieter and more spaced out than many of the other, more popular campgrounds closer to Kamas.

This one backs up to a beautiful cliff with evergreens. While it's close to the road, we found the road noise to be minimal. Each site has a fire ring and some spacing from one's neighbors. There are also pit toilets and trash receptacles (if I remember correctly). I'm unsure about potable water.
