User input for Chepeta Lake, Uinta Mountains, Duchesne County, Utah:
Matt Allred: Chepeta is a very hit or miss lake. Fishing can be absolutely dead one day and sweet the next. The water was crazy low two summers ago and there may not even be a lot of fish left unless they've planted it since. Worth the trip though -- if one lake is cold another will be hot.

The Uinta Mountains scenery is always beautiful. Not enough hours in a day to enjoy the Uinta Mountains. Going for a hike along the Dry Fork Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this area, and Papoose Lake is a nearby lake that you could take a look at. What a place this is for outdoors folks. You can take a little tour to Chepeta Dam if you're here at Chepeta Lake, and if you need a place to stay Best Western Inn is a great choice. This lake

Chepeta Lake is pretty arid generally; most of the rain falls through May, and February on the other hand is the driest. A magnificent place for whitewater paddling in the vicinity of Chepeta Lake is Uinta River, and do pop by Moccasin Lake, it's a picturesque lake. For the period | |

Little Elk Lake
 | That's a pretty tough road to get there. I'd say about 4 miles in, but lots of big rocks. Great views though. We took ATV's up and it was a fairly unremarkable ride. We did see a couple of 4WD Trucks headed up too. Good scenery up top. I'd like to camp there and hang out. We didn't fish. It doesn't look really good for that.... |
Beaver Lake
 | 15 miles away Nice bows. Much less traveled than Whitney, next door. The real fishin' is 2 miles away though.... |
