Ledge is a hard hike in the High Uintas Wilderness, part of the Duchesne Ranger District of Ashley National Forest in northeastern Utah. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail is a natural-surface out-and-back that climbs about 1,600 feet over roughly 15.6 miles, from a low of about 9,850 feet to a high of about 10,850 feet. Horses are allowed, but bikes are not. The route is long and steep, so plan for a full day on foot. Kyhv Lake and the Rock Creek Spur Trail both lie within about 1.5 miles.
