Yeah, don’t go to island lake on the weekends. Plan on 10-15 miles to lose the crowds. For iconic destinations at least.

Yep, I could tell it was Island Lake too. That trailhead is the busiest in the Uintas, I think.

That cliff is a big draw for sure. Lots of fun. Usually only mildly busy late fall or early in the year with ice in it 😁

Oh. Yeah, there are definitely options where you won't get in that trouble like Island .
