Bridges Campground

Bridges Campground is located in beautiful Huntington Canyon, along the Huntington Canyon National Scenic Byway on Utah Highway 31, at an elevation of approximately 8,700 feet. Popular activities include fishing, hunting, hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, rock climbing and scenic driving. Huntington Creek is a Blue Ribbon fishery, offering high quality fishing for brown, cutthroat and rainbow trout. The 4-mile Left Fork of the Huntington National Recreation Trail is nearby and open to hikers and horseback riders, and the 10-mile Fish Creek Trail, for hiking, biking and horseback riding, is also close by. Horses are not allowed in the campground, but two hitching racks are provided just across the highway. The campground offers one group campsite that can accommodate up to 30 people, plus four single-family campsites. Vault toilets are provided, but there is no drinking water or electricity. There are no garbage services within the campground, so be prepared to "pack it in and pack it out". Roads and parking spurs are dirt. Large spruce trees and aspens cover the campground, offering plentiful shade, and Huntington Creek runs alongside it. The canyon area has numerous lakes and streams, vibrant summer wildflowers, colorful fall foliage and abundant wildlife. The Huntington Canyon National Scenic Byway is part of the 86-mile Energy Loop, offering stunning mountain and lake views as it tops 10,000 feet in elevation. The historic Stuart Guard Station Visitor Center is nearby, offering a glimpse of the 1930s life of a ranger and his family who once lived there, with exhibits of Civilian Conservation Corps projects and original equipment on display.
