Did you catch anything big?
We drove by strawberry on the 3rd. I had never seen so many boats like that. Can't imagine there'll be many big fish left, to catch and release of course!

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 😁
