I left at 4:45am on Monday morning to head out on my adventure. My GPS had the distance as being 583 miles to the Oasis Campground at Yuba Lake Park.
But first I had to pass through Vegas. It seems like they are always doing construction on Interstate 15:
Around 4:00 pm local time I finally arrive at my campsite:
This campground is very aptly named Oasis. It is located lakeside in the Utah high desert. Luckily I made reservations as the campground was full…on a Monday! The reason for it’s popularity is that has 2 campgrounds with boat ramps, and Utah’s only boat-in campground. There are also OHV trails nearby. Camper’s can launch their boat at Oasis and leave it tied up on the shoreline:
Tuesday morning I took campsite photos here at Oasis and then decided to drive to the other side of the lake to get campsite photos at Painted Rocks Campground. The Ranger told me about a shortcut that would save me some time. Below are some pictures of the “shortcut”:
It worked out fine! I will be leaving here on Tuesday and heading to Huntington State Park. There is a very scenic route I want to try, Utah 31, so hopefully I will capture some fun images.
Regards,
Greg
