Huntington Lake, Miller Flat and Joe's Valley

Miller Flat Lake  // waterful nearby.... Skyline Drive Trail - late June

Mountain flowers with small spider... a trail with summer flowers... liatris flowers


Directions: Fairview 16 miles East on UT 31, South on Miller Flat Road, park anyhwere or pick a campsite and stay a couple days. Campsites are open, roomy and plentiful. There are ample places and trail to ride bikes, ATV's, fish and hike. The whole area is very beautiful. 
Distance: trail -  as long or short as you want them to be. Hooks into Skyline Drive trail.
Fishing available in several lakes
Difficulty: pretty normal
High Altitudes in even late june can be cold (see the snow on the upper picture - if out on an ATV plan to have appropriate clothing (windbreaker, fleece, wool, coat, gloves, hat would be good)
lower elevations are warm so layering is good. 
If you like flowers and trees, bring a book to identify them - they are plentiful as are small lakes and ponds throughout.

  1. I was so surprised to see snow in your picture! I guess going up there is a great way to escape the summer heat.
