backpack - palisade lake - July 9, 2022

This is an easier, beginner-focused backpacking trip led by Casey Landru and Rich Cherian. We will backpack to Palisade Lake from the Grandview Trailhead in the Uintas. It's 6.1 miles (one-way) to the lake, where we will camp overnight then return to the trailhead in the morning. Mosquitos are expected to be plentiful, so bring bug clothing and repellent. The last six miles to the trailhead is a rough gravel road, and we recommend carpooling in a higher clearance vehicle (Subaru Outback or higher). Passenger cars may get a little dinged up on the underside due to the rocks/pot holes. Group size is limited to 14 people. There are currently 9 spots available.
