Little East Fork Black's Fork Trip Report.
A Lot of people may kill me for posting this report, but it was featured in a Doug Miller Story, and it takes a lot of work to get around in the basin.
I spent five days in the drainage - if you don't know where it is, look at a map of the Uintas. It is very remote and not visited by many people. The reason is simple - there is only one trail in the basin, and no major lakes. All the lakes require some bushwacking off-trail of at least a mile - and in very steep terrain.
I managed to see 14 Moose, catch well over 100 fish, and listen to Elk Calls - and the only people I saw was on the last day as I was leaving. I was solo, so my sanity was tested, but later I began to relish the peaceful nature of the mountains. When sleeping in the tent I kept wondering if Big Foot was coming for me - an Owl kept screeching and scaring me - but when you are alone all the sounds seem to be a little more alarming and louder.
Here are some pics: - In my stupidity I named them 2006, but they are this last week (AUG 22 - 26 2007) The lakes are not name up in the basin, that is why I referred to them as "Hidden".Biking, Hiking, and Fishing are life. Everything else is just fluff.
