It's always fun to stop by Baum Lake. Go for a hike on the Slope Trail; get your heart beating on the tremendous whitewater of Duchesne River. This lake is so wonderful. Don't leave Baum Lake without first going for a hike along the East Fork Pinto Lake Trail, and lakes are such serene spots, why not take a look at Big Dog Lake. You'll stumble on a charming lake called Brown Duck Lake near Baum Lake; why not camp at Yellow Pine Campground if you're here at Baum

| | Lake. Not much rainfall falls here at Baum Lake; the month with most of the rain is September while March is mostly the driest month. This place, Baum Lake, it truly has so much outdoors exciting stuff. Going for a hike on the Fish Creek National Recreation Trail is always a pleasant adventure, and whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we recommend Rock Creek. So many fun things to do in the Uinta Mountains, not enough time. | |

Rock Creek
 | (...) The section is comprised of 3 class 3+/IV- drops with swift braided channels in between. It seldom flows since most water is diverted over to the Wasatch front from the Upper Stillwater Dam (it has to spill to be runnable.) Climatologically speaking, March is actually the month of our highest precipitation (which falls as snow, building the pack which then melts in May/June.) Most people find this section of river not nearly as rewarding as other runs in the state.... |

LaMarla Lake
 | 13 miles away Lamarla Lake received it's name from my mother, Margaret Gurr Hamblin, her sister LaVon Gurr Hansen and LaVar Davies,(nephew of my dad Lyman Duane Hamblin Jr.) They were camping and fishing in the Uinta Mountains. While hiking they came upon the beautiful little lake. They decided to give it a name. They took LA from LaVar, MAR from Margaret, and LA from LaVon, forming the name LAMARLA. They posted the name by the lake. I grew up hearing this story. My mother Margaret passed away over twenty years ago. LaVon is still alive and lives with her husband, Omar in Springville, UT. LaVar is also living and resides in St. George UT. Both are in their eighties. As a child my favorite horse was named Lamarla.... |

Highline Trail
 | 16 miles away The U.S. Forrest Service last attention to this trail was in 1994/1995 and the trail markings in many places is all but non-existent. Portions of the trail---particularly in the meadows areas have been overgrown and rock cairn markers, where they do exist, are often overgrown and difficult to find. Do not attempt this trail without detailed terrain maps and GPS equipment and the ability to use both. It would also be a good idea to carry a satellite phone (rentals are available) as there is no cell phone signal anywhere along the route from the Mirror Lake trailhead on the West all the way to the Chepeta lake trailhead on the East... |
