Upper Stillwater

Nestled below the Upper Stillwater Reservoir in the stunning Rock Creek Drainage, this federal campground offers a peaceful escape on the southern slopes of the Uinta Mountains. Sitting at an elevation of 8,155 feet, the area provides a rugged and scenic backdrop for outdoor enthusiasts. The campground serves as a prime gateway to the High Uintas Wilderness, with the popular Rock Creek Trail starting right outside your site, offering endless opportunities for hiking, backpacking, and horseback riding.

Anglers will find the location particularly appealing, as the nearby Rock Creek is well-known for its brook and rainbow trout fishing. The campground is equipped with essential amenities to make your stay comfortable, including flush toilets, a dump station, picnic tables, and fire rings for evening campfires. Whether you are looking to cast a line or explore the high-altitude backcountry, the terrain provides a quintessential mountain experience.

This site is well-suited for a variety of visitors, including tent campers and those traveling with RVs, though campers should be prepared for a rustic experience without hookups. It is an ideal destination for those who enjoy active days in the wilderness and quiet nights under the stars in one of Utah's most beautiful natural regions.
