Bald Mountain is a 11,949-foot (3,642 m) peak in the western Uinta Mountain Range in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest on the border between Summit and Wasatch counties in northeastern Utah, United States.
Description
The mountain has a prominence of 1,823 feet (556 m) and is home to mountain goats, pika, and a number of species of wildflowers. Utah State Route 150 (SR‑150) passes just east of the mountain.
Climate
Bald Mountain Trail
The summit can be reached by the Bald Mountain Trail (National Forest Trail 3202), beginning at Bald Mountain Pass on SR‑150,. The trail provides views of the surrounding areas. The maintained trail gains 1,250 feet (381 m) of elevation in 1.4 miles (2.3 km) and due to the high elevation (the trailhead is about 10,700 feet [3,300 m] above sea level) it is a moderately strenuous hike with no shade. The hike to the summit can be completed in 2 to 3 hours round trip. The trail does commonly have snow.
