Hayden Fork Campground is a Forest Service campground in the Evanston-Mountain View Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest in Utah. It sits within the national forest's ranger district, and the Forest Service manages the land. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Moon Lake show July and August highs around 77°F with lows near 48°F, while winter highs stay around 31°F. That station sits about 750 feet lower than the campground, so temperatures here run a little cooler. The campground is not reservable. Beaver View campground is about half a mile away, and the Main Fork Bear River Trail starts about a mile off. The Wolverine ATV Trailhead/Campground is roughly 2.3 miles away, and the West Fork Bear River offers canoeing about 4.8 miles out.
