"The Crystal Lake trail in the Uintas has multiple scenic lakes to backpack into for the night ranging from .2 to 4 miles long.
Crystal Lake is the first at less than a quarter mile in, or the last in this case on the way back down."

Gear List:
Monument Valley Sunrise
It’s totally worth losing some sleep to take in the golden hour of a Monument Valley sunrise.
Camp Deception
It’s a slight bummer when the reverse gear of your 1975 VW Bus craps out while parked near a steep drop-off, but at least you can still camp out in it while waiting for the overall situation to improve.
Canyon Camping
The desolation of Utah backcountry rewards those who trek out far beyond paved roads.
