About
Yellowstone Group Campground lies along its pretty namesake river on the southern slope of the Uinta Mountains, about 40 miles from Duchesne, Utah. Set at an elevation of 7,700 feet, the campground sits on the banks of the Yellowstone River in a forest of aspen, maple, and ponderosa pine. Wildlife and summer wildflowers are abundant throughout the area. The campground contains one reservable group site that accommodates up to 40 people, four vehicles, and four camp trailers or RV units, with picnic tables and campfire rings. Several first-come, first-served single sites are also available. Vault toilets and drinking water are provided, and roads and parking spurs are gravel. Visitors come to the area to enjoy extensive recreational opportunities. The Yellowstone River offers excellent fishing for rainbow, brown, brook, and cutthroat trout. The Yellowstone ATV Trail System is conveniently close, with over 50 miles of trail on the Petty Mountain and Dry Gulch Loops; hiking and biking are also allowed on these trails. Yellowstone Canyon offers beautiful mountain scenery, a small reservoir, and trailheads with access to the High Uintas Wilderness, where hiking, backpacking, horseback riding, and backcountry fishing are popular. Access is via Forest Road 119, which is rough and rocky in places.
Directions
From Duchesne, take Highway 87 north to Mountain Home, then travel on Uinta and Ouray Indian Reservation Road to Forest Road 131 to Forest Road 119. FR 119 is rough and rocky in places.
