Mirror Lake Highway opens for 2024 season

A UDOT vehicle parks in front of Bald Mountain on Mirror Lake Highway in 2019.

The Utah Department of Transportation opened state Route 150, spanning Kamas to Wyoming, June 6.

The Evanston Ranger District made the announcement on Facebook. The Uinta Mountains scenic byway is clear, but many parking lots and trails have snow or ice still.

The Heber-Kamas Ranger District had not posted campground and trail updates online as of Friday morning.

The U.S. Forest Service continues its Ponderosa prescribed burn project about 10 miles up the road from Kamas. Fire officials ask the public not to report controlled burns, which it says are for wildfire mitigation, habitat restoration and watershed protection.

This is a developing story.
