Video: prime boondocking near Salt Lake City/Park City, Utah

If you're going to travel to the Salt Lake City/Park City area, one of our favorite go-to spots is the whole Heber Mountain/Duchesne Ridge area of Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, a spectacular 100,000-acre boondocking paradise. My latest video explores this wonderful area for those looking for prime camping near Salt Lake City.

    Excellent video. And if that area gets too crowded, there is even more camping not too far away, off the Mirror Lake Highway in the Uintas. Great boondocking, if uinta that sort of thing. ;)


    Thank you. Indeed there's a lot in the Uintas, I especially love Whitney Reservoir.

    I used to, the with a hundred thousand acres I'm not too worried.


    As the crowds move in and the trash piles up from some that haven't got the sense God gave a goose, 1000,000 acres could get smaller.
