We hiked by only 14 of them, but per my hiking book the Uinta Mountains in northeastern Utah have more than one thousand lakes and ponds. Our campground, Lake Washington -- named for what else, the lake you can see behind our motorhome below -- was at ten thousand feet, more than twice as high as Salt Lake City. That kind of altitude means it gets cold early in the season so most of the other nearby campgrounds (there are dozens in the Uinta's) closed this weekend. And the leaves were already turning. It's fall.

What a great blog! I want to "turn the clock back" to September and meet you in the area you describe for a weekend of hiking and other adventures. Love the photos. Love the storyline. I think the next few years will be so exciting for you. Bon voyage!
