Camping at Iron Mine near Duchesne

Public campground · Duchesne · 15 campsites · 1 group

A forested campground near trout fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Iron Mine Campground sits in the North Fork Drainage off Highway 35 on the southern slopes of the Uinta Mountains, roughly 18 miles from Tabiona and about 28 miles northwest of Duchesne by road. The camp area sits at about 7,400 feet along the North Fork Duchesne River and is framed by stands of aspen with pockets of subalpine fir, lodgepole pine and spruce; summer brings an abundance of wildflowers and clear views down the canyon.

“Great campsite next to a beautiful river. Very rustic toilet situation and no campground host that we could find to take care of the noisy group campers.”

How far ahead to book Iron Mine

For May weekends, book about 100 days ahead. Three in four May Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 30 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

See booking patterns
Arrival monthFri/Sat arrivals: half booked at leastA quarter at leastOther days: half booked at leastA quarter at least

August26 days ahead63 days ahead34 days ahead73 days ahead
September30 days ahead43 days ahead——

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (2,340 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
