Explore Grandaddy Basin

Hanna, Utah

5.0

Grandaddy Lake is the largest lake in the High Unitas. While Grandaddy Lake can have plenty of hikers, there are over twenty lakes within a two-hour hike within the Grandaddy Basin. Most hikers don’t go beyond Grandaddy lake, making the area a fantastic area to explore and camp. Elevation in the basin ranges from 10,000 - 10,500 feet. This basin is one of the greenest and most beautiful parts o...

Sites are scattered on the left and right (I suggest the left side spots) with plenty to choose from. The road is washboard but not too rough and certainly passable without the need of...

Camp at Pyramid Lake in Murdock Basin of Utah's Uinta Mountains

Hanna, Utah

Pyramid Lake is at an elevation of 9,700 feet with a 1,000-foot tall mountain directly to the west of the lake. Due to this steep face butting up to the edge of the lake, the sun drops behind the mountain early, but it stays light long into the evening. ...

Backcountry Ski Mt. Watson in the Uinta Mountains

Kamas, Utah

Mt. Watson is a beauty. It is one of the tallest peaks directly outside of the High Uintas Wilderness area and has a stunning East face that is very steep and littered with cliff bands. Many people hike around Mt. Watson in the summer, when the Mirror Lake Highway is open and the trailhead is easily accessed. In the winter, however, Mt. Watson is deep in the wilderness. The Mirror Lake Highway ...
