Top Ten Destinations
The Uinta Mountains, an hour east of Park City, are not a household name outside of Utah, but they really should be. When it comes to beautiful scenery, options for outdoor activities and proximity to one of the nation's best mountain towns, the Uintas can't be beat. Other than the Great Salt Lake and maybe Lake Powell, most people may not associate Utah with an excess of lakes.
The Uintas put the lie to this assumption with a heavy peppering of gorgeous mountain lakes, flowing streams and endless trails in between. Take all the beauty of the Uintas, add in the fact that you can spend a weekend here without seeing more than a handful of people, and you've got a great argument for keeping the place secret. Get outside and explore the Uintas, then head to Park City for a bite and a beer.
