[quote brookieguy1]Sorry but I think they were trying to keep you away. No lake in the Uintas would ever be frozen in August![/quote]
Ha ha, maybe! I know that some of the upper lakes sometimes go the whole year without fully thawing. Check out this trip report: [url "http://www.lustik.com/Red_Castle_Backpack.htm"]http://www.lustik.com/Red_Castle_Backpack.htm[/url]
These guys were up there about this time a couple years back and there was still lots of snow and ice. Last time I was up there in late august, all of our water was still freezing at night - it definitely gets cold up there!
