Description
The mountain has a prominence of 1,823 feet (556 m)[1] 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.[3]
Bald Mountain Trail
The summit can be reached by the Bald Mountain Trail (National Forest Trail 3202),[4][5] beginning at Bald Mountain Pass on SR‑150,.[3] The trail provides views of the surrounding areas. The maintained trail[4] 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.

[de] Bald Mountain (Utah)
Der Bald Mountain liegt im Westen der Uinta Mountains in Utah.[2] Der einfachste Anstieg auf den 3640 m hohen Berg geht von dem Bald Mountain Pass aus. Der Pass überquert die Uinta Mountains zwischen dem Bald Mountain und dem Murdoch Mountain und stellt die höchstgelegene asphaltierte Straßenverbindung in Utah dar. Da der Anstieg auf den Bald Mountain relativ einfach ist, befindet er sich unter den populärsten großen Bergtouren in Utah. Die Wanderung zum Gipfel kann in einer zwei- bis dreistündigen Wanderung abgeschlossen werden.- [en] Bald Mountain (Uinta Range)
