UTAH HIGH COUNTRY

Spent the weekend camping at some high elevation lakes. This area of Utah is becoming one of my favorite places to fish and just enjoy the weekend. Not an easy place to reach, but that makes it all the more interesting. I have yet to see another human in these parts. A good map, polaris razor and a chain saw can get you up to some great locations.

A view of one of the lakes!




The fishing was great! Especially in the afternoons, caught plenty of nice sized fish!

Below is a huge Bonneville cutthroat I managed to catch on the 1st cast of the day.


Caught several more in the 12 to 15" range.


Also some nice brook trout in these lakes.


Hopefully on labor day weekend I can explore a few more blue spots on the map.
