Yellow Pine Campground

About

Yellow Pine Campground is located on the Mirror Lake Scenic Byway at an elevation of 7,200 feet in the Uinta Mountains of northeastern Utah. This is not the same campground as the Yellowpine on the southern slope of the Uinta Mountains near Rock Creek. The 33 single-unit campsites are situated among shady pines and aspen, with Yellow Pine Creek running alongside the campground. Dense stands of trees provide good shade and colorful fall foliage. Each site accommodates up to 8 people and includes a fire ring and picnic table. Vault toilets are located throughout the campground, but there is no potable water available, so campers must bring their own supply. The campground is unpaved and operates on a first-come, first-served basis. ATVs are prohibited, and there is a 7-day stay limit. Numerous hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails crisscross this region, including Yellow Pine, North Fork, and Shingle Creek trails, all of which begin nearby. The Lower Provo River below the site and across the highway offers good trout fishing. This is bear country, so all food and trash must be stored securely.
