Neat area
The parking area was packed and so was the trail. A popular trail but yet that didn't alter the superb views. A bicycle event was going on down on the highway so I didn't go over and get Murdock like I thought I would and I also had planned to re-visit the county highpoint and check the register. That'll wait for another day (mid week a better choice).

Bald Mountain + Murdock
Loved it! Great views all around. Added Murdock Mountain and Wasatch Co. HP afterward.
I've hiked Bald a couple of times. I think I was complaining about it being a hard hike the first time I did it in '05. Went back in June of '08 and I couldn't believe that I was complaining the first time; it was a fun, very easy hike.
I hiked this with my dad when I was only 10.. fun!!

Route: Bald Mountain Trail
Nice, short hike with great views of nearby mountains and lakes in the Uintas. It was our 10-month old boy's first real mountain summit. See "Start 'Em Out Young" trip report for details.
Came back on 9/13/19 and did a loop hike of Reids Peak and Bald Mountain with Kendrick (see "Huckleberries, Goats, & [Mostly] Solid Rock" trip report for details).
Climbed up the standard trail and then down the other side to the saddle between Bald and Reid's Peak with Marauders. The sunrise from the summit was incredible.
Easy trail hike. We were able to watch the sunrise from the summit, then continue on to Reids Peak.

Good hike
This is a fun, short hike that is suitable for everyone. The views are outstanding. Consider this a necessary hike when in the Uintahs.

Standard Route
Sunday morning hike... Didn't see many people and had summit to ourselves. One of the best "bang for your buck" hikes in Utah. Got to the bottom in time for the thunderstorms rolling in from the moisture from hurricane Dean.

Easy and nice view
This mountain was really easy but also rocky! The view of all the lakes from the top are great.

Crowded summit, good views
It would be very tough to find an easier summit at this elevation. Did this on a Wednesday morning and it got very crowded. 3 miles roundtrip with great views of the surrounding ranges as well as numerous lakes. Well worth the time if you're looking for a quick one or just passing through, as I was.
Did this with my wife after classes got out on a Friday afternoon... Despite Labor Day weekend beckoning, we saw only a few other folks on the mountain. Bald Mt was my first climb in the Uintas.

Route climbed: Bald Mountain TrailNot much solitude, easy, short, yet still worth it. Great views. Continue to Reids Peak to add a little more spice to this one!

Bald Mountain TrailThis was a fun easy trail to an awsome vantage point to view good part of the Uintas. An awesome hike to do with friends and family.
