Porcupine Pass sits at approximately 12,200 feet and is one of the most scenic and challenging sections of the Uinta Highline Trail. Nestled between Red Knob Pass and Tungsten Pass, it serves as a key landmark along the trail. Offering expansive views of the Oweep Basin to the west and Lake Fork drainage to the east, its summit provides a true sense of isolation in the wilderness. No matter which way you hike it, the ascent is steep and rocky, with loose terrain, so be sure to enjoy the views from the top!
