The Swift Creek Campground sits at just over 8000 feet elevation near the confluence of Swift Creek and the Yellowstone River. A lovely waterfall is nearby. The campground is near the boundary of the High Uintas Wilderness, and the trailhead from the campground leads to a number of alpine lakes. Fishing for brook, brown and rainbow trout is possible in the Yellowstone River.
In Mountain Home, UT, at the intersection of 21000W and 2750N, take 21000W north 0.7 miles to a "T" intersection. Turn right and go 4.4 miles to Yellowstone Recreation Area sign. Turn right after sign onto a dirt and gravel road and go 0.4 miles to another "T" intersection. Turn left and go 4.2 miles to a "Y" intersection. Bear right and go 4.7 miles to campground.
