     Blythe Lake is a nice lake to visit. Just can't get enough of the Uinta Mountains. Bald Mountain is easy to spot from Blythe Lake. You'll need more than a day to discover everything Blythe Lake has to offer, you can camp at Butterfly Campground. There are some wonderful whitewater spots on Rock Creek, and Mirror Lake is a nearby lake that you could check out. Going for a hike along the Lofty Lake Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this area; do go  
   to Bonnie Lake, it's a striking lake.
This lake is so wonderful. The Skinner Cutoff Trail is a magnificent hiking trail right next door to Blythe Lake. There's so much to do here at Blythe Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Highline Trail Head Campground is a great spot for that. Not much rainfall falls here at Blythe Lake; February is when you get the most snow here; June is when it's the driest. And if that's not enough there's plenty more amusing
 
               stuff to do in the Uinta Mountains. Dry warm beds await you at Lodge at Stillwater.
Blythe Lake is one of the lakes here in the Uinta Mountains. For the period of the days of summer, highs usually are in the 80's at Blythe Lake, and during the night it cools down to the 40's.

Highline Trail
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...

LaMarla Lake
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....

Rock Creek
16 miles away
(...) 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....
