Barney Powell Mine

Just over an hour away from Salt Lake City lies a playground. This playground offers over 2.1 million acres with any outdoor sporting activity you can imagine. The Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest is quite a wonderland. This particular region lies just outside of Kamas, Utah, and is open to all kinds of recreation from backpacking to fishing, to just about anything with a motor. Not far from the mouth of the canyon is the Soapstone Basin. This region runs right along the Lower Provo River and provides access to many streams, lakes, trails, and camping opportunities. Barney Powell Mine is a nice addition to any plans you may have exploring the Uintas. This trail will take you away from the crowds and allow you some peace and quiet so you can really take a deep breath and relax to forget all of your troubles.
