Red Castle, Utah

Wow! Another great four day adventure to Red Castle.  From Mountain View, Wy we traveled 20+ miles down a dirt road back into Utah to the trailhead.  Then we hiked 13.5 miles to our campsite, in very tall pines at 11.5k feet elevation, just below Red Castle Lake. The weather was perfect, upper 70's during the day, low 40's at night.  We spent two entire days fishing and hiking around.  I caught at least 30 trout in two days. Of course we threw most of them back but ate trout for lunch one day and once for a late night snack.  The campfire, majestic setting, solitude, amaizing sunsets/rises, and stars that you thought were just out of arms reach made for some extreme relaxation.  It takes a lot to silence my mind.  This trip accomplished that every day. Heading for the Bookcliffs soon for some hiking, wildlife photography, and to help a friend with his archery elk hunt.  Should be some more great memories.
