    Cool little reservoir north of Vernal and it is a pretty 20 min drive from downtown. Park staff were nice and the dinosaur tracks are awesome. The hike is 1.5 miles in so bring some water. The water temps in late June were 69 degrees and the water was calm. Would love to come back with the boat.

    Sweet little lake. Still hoping to find the fish. The campground is very close quarters is other campers. Hope you like your tent only a few feet away from others.
