Uinta Highline Trail: Quick and Dirty Guide The Uinta Highline Trail is a 104-mile trail that runs along the Uinta Mountain Range in Utah’s Ashley National Forest and Wasatch-Cache National Forest. The trail is noted for its expansive views and varied terrain, which includes lodgepole forest, glacial valleys, alpine lakes, and high mountain passes. The trail has an average elevation of 10,700′; it crosses eight mountain passes that are over 11,000′, requiring 16,700′ of elevation gain end-to-end. The trail’s highpoint is Kings Peak at 13,528′. The Uinta Mountains uniquely run east/west, whereas most other ranges in the Rockies run north/south. The Highline Trail begins in a forest consisting primarily of lodgepole pine and opens sometimes into big meadows. In each of the eight basins along the trail, you will be going in and out of the forest, occasionally passing lakes.
