Uinta Basin & Flaming Gorge

The eastern side of the Uintas is a different world from the Mirror Lake Highway corridor — Ashley National Forest, the Green River, and Flaming Gorge Reservoir, reached from Vernal, Duchesne, and Roosevelt rather than Kamas.

• Sheep Creek Canyon Geological Loop: Dramatic canyon scenery on a loop road near Flaming Gorge
• Red Canyon & Antelope Flat: Dispersed sites near the reservoir, with a 1,700-foot overlook
• Little Brush Creek: South-slope Uinta camping close to Vernal and Dinosaur National Monument
• Soapstone Basin: A quieter alternative to Mirror Lake Highway, reached from Hanna and Duchesne
