Soe and Liz... glad you guys made the trip! You guys looked a bit "smoked" I could see Liz take off her boots and you both looked a bit exhausted. My first time at Red Castle was when I was 15 years old. (Not a dead tree in the forest!) I've been back many times. The upper lake has incredibly good fishing. One of the special places in the Uintas for sure. Giving yourself three days is a much better pace. I've done the two day thing as well... I've also done 4 days, which is really nice.. Gives you a lot more time to acclimate and relax. Glad you did it!.
Cool video logs! Headin there this weekend I am so excited because it’s my first backpacking trip. It’s one of the first place locally I was like I need to see this myself and required overnight camping in the wilderness
I introduced my wife to backpacking at Redcastle Lake a few years ago, we set up camp a bit further south and hiked up to the lake for lunch, I think we ate almost exactly where you guys camped 🤣

great video. my girlfriend and I are going there next month. it is her first time backpacking as well.
I love Red Castle. Next time you go stay for 2 or 3 nights. It's worth exploring around the area.
Yes we totally agree! This was our first backpacking trip and the hike wiped us out. Wish we could have stayed longer to see the area more.
Ever get the creeps in those Uintas?
Every time
