About

Lilly Lake Campground located just off the Mirror Lake Scenic Byway on the shores of Lost Lake at an elevation of 10,000 feet. The byway cuts through the Uinta Mountains, which are known for their abundant recreational opportunities and scenic beauty. The campground is situated near 3 lakes (Lilly Lake, Lost Lake and Teapot Lake). Hiking, Fishing and canoeing opportunities are available in the area. This is a paved campground with 14 single campsites. Each campsite has a picnic table and fire ring. Vault Toilet restrooms are available. A dense forest of Engelmann spruce and lodgepole pine covers the campground, providing ample shade. Summer wildflowers dot the landscape. Summer temperatures range from 65-75 degrees during the day to 40-50 degrees at night. Heading east from Kamas into the Uinta Mountains, through the Wasatch-Cache National Forest is the Mirror Lake Scenic Byway. In addition to scenic viewpoints and picnic areas, numerous lakes and campgrounds line this high-mountain byway. Much of the journey parallels the Provo River. The byway climbs to an elevation of 10,687 feet at Bald Mountain Pass before descending past Mirror Lake, then to Bear River Ranger Station with its Historical Tie Hack Cabin. From here the route parallels the Bear River and on to Evanston. Recreational activities along the byway include camping, fishing, cross-country skiing, hiking, riding ATVs and snowmobiling.
