I am planning a quick backpacking/fishing trip this weekend up into the Uintas. One option I'm considering is Dead Horse Lake via West Fork Blacks Fork. The other option (shorter hike) is Amethyst Lake. Is it too late in the year to head up there, and will it be worth the potential crowds at Amethyst? What are your thoughts on these two options?
One of my questions about West Fork Blacks Fork trail head is the river crossing at the very beginning. Anyone know if the water is very deep this time of year? I'm hoping to be able to drive across if possible...
Also wondering about the fishing. I've heard good things about both (this is the Uintas, after all), but I'd be interested in anyone's opinions, advice, comparisons between these two lakes, etc.
