60 minutes from downtown Salt Lake City Tibble Fork is a local hidden get away. Tibble Fork in Utah county. The beautiful drive up American Fort canyon is breath taking in its self.

For the day or over night camping I recommended it.…

There is plenty of space but parking can fill up. But we always find a spot. Fishing is great at both river inlets. Early season is a fish on with every cast using a Jake’s spinalure. Too many people swimming without life vests. This reservoir usually has a drowning or two each year. Swimming across it without protection is asking for disaster.…
