On 27 Jun 09, Tracy and I headed out to Island Lake (Google Map) in the Uintas.  We had big

plans of making it all the way to Island Lake, but we were moving pretty slowly, so we only

made it as far as Fish Lake.  We ended up camping at McCoy Park and had the entire

meadow to ourselves...that was nice.  In fact, we had the trail pretty much to ourselves the

whole two days, and only saw 5 or 6 people.  The mosquitos were out pretty good, but some

Deet and the ThermaCall handled them pretty well.  But this was a great trail: there were lots of

lakes, and, best of all, lots of wide open meadows.  It reminded us of Colorado, which makes

us happy.  It was really, really pretty, and I would love to find more parks like this in the Uintas.

Enjoy the pictures, though, because this was one of our favorite places we've found in the

Uintas.
