About
Upper Stillwater Campground is situated just below the Upper Stillwater Dam in the Rock Creek Drainage on the southern slope of the beautiful Uinta Mountains at an elevation of 8,000 feet. The concrete dam is visible from the campground, and the area is surrounded by a forest of Ponderosa pine, lodgepole pine, and aspen trees that provide sparse shade. Summer wildflowers are abundant in this scenic mountain setting. The campground contains one group site that can accommodate up to 32 people, equipped with picnic tables, grills, a campfire ring, three tent pads, and RV parking. Single and double-family sites are also available, each with picnic tables and campfire rings. Flush toilets, drinking water, and trash collection are provided, with a campground host on-site during the operating season. The Rock Creek Trail begins just outside the campground and provides direct access to the High Uintas Wilderness, where hiking, backpacking, horseback riding, and backcountry fishing are popular activities. Rock Creek offers excellent rainbow and brook trout fishing. Upper Stillwater Reservoir can only be accessed by hiking, as the road to the reservoir is closed to vehicle traffic. A dump station is located 3 miles away at Yellowpine Campground.
Directions
From Duchesne, Utah: Take Highway 87 approximately 20 miles north to Mountain Home. Turn left at the Rock Creek Store and travel 18 miles to the campground.
