Special Considerations
A use pass is required in the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area. Failure to display a pass may result in a fine. Passes may be purchased at many nearby outlets and Forest Service offices.
Boaters should note reefs and rocks are not marked. Due to the fluctuating lake levels, boaters must use lake maps and familiarize themselves with locations of hazards. Lake maps and other educational publications may be purchased from the Flaming Gorge Natural History Association. Safety equipment is required by state law. Utah or Wyoming state fishing licenses are required; check about current conditions. Water skiers should note that the Utah portion of the lake consists of relatively narrow canyon channels.
