Drop Camps, Catered Camps, Hiking and Trail Rides

• Always take rain gear during the summer months. Afternoon thundershowers are common.
  
• The High Uintas are notorious for biting insects. Take insect repellent.
  
• Be wary of the thin air. Altitude sickness is very possible above 9,000 to 10,000 feet.
  
• Use sunscreen.
  
• Bring warm clothing - freezing temperatures are possible any time of year.
  
• Bring a good map and compass as the trails in the upper basins can be hard to find.
  
• Before mid-July you'll likely run into big snowfields and torrential streams, but even in late summer you may want to take wading shoes.
  

Drop Camps and Catered Camps

• Firewood is getting scarce, especially in the upper elevations, it's best to take a propane stove for cooking.
