The 20 Lake Trail Loop is an absolutely beautiful hike in the High Uintas. There are lakes all along the way, and lovely views, and right now the wildflowers are amazing! We do this clockwise, which seems to be a good way to do it. There are steep parts for sure, and the back part of the loop is not really on a trail, more bushwhacking, you definitely want to have a map downloaded (we use AllTrails Pro). It is all well worth the effort, though. We saw deer on the way to the trailhead & on the trail saw hummingbirds, lots of birds, squirrels, etc. You want to try to get there early, the parking lot fills up quickly & if you have to park in the overflow, it adds about another mile of just walking up the road.
I am not sure if AllTrails has the mileage totally wrong, or we get lost, but every time we have done this one, we track it at about 10-11 miles.
