I am a parent. My child was struggling with Aspergers - can't read social cues, frustration with…read morethe way the world is, a desire to be accepted but an inability to gain acceptance, obsessive use of computers and online games, anxiety, poor ability to plan ahead (executive function), etc. We sent him to the Aspiro program for kids like him (Vantage Point program). There are other programs there, but each group is kept generally separate. Vantage Point included about 7 kids depending on the week, between the ages of 14 and 17. All of the kids who were there with our son were high-functioning. The program includes very intensive oversight and therapy. The "guides" are all very knowledgeable about counseling and wilderness camping, and were all very caring. The kids basically are out on the trail 4 or 5 nights a week, and in "base camp" 2 or 3 nights. The participants do one activity per week: rock climbing, hiking, mountain biking, "skills camp," and more. No swimming or boating, apparently due to an insurance issue. The kids develop really good outdoor skills, including in those areas (especially rock climbing), camping skills, cooking for themselves, planning their use of water and food, not leaving anything behind, etc. The campers are kept very active - the physical aspect is a bit draining, but nothing dangerous or even close to any participant's limits. The nights on the trail include counseling, group activities (maybe closer to group therapy), and of course setting up the camp for the night. Kids have the opportunity to form friendships, talk with others who understand the stresses of their lives and their unique situations, and learn a lot about themselves. While out on the activities for the week, participants do not have cabins, tents (at least not in the summer), bathrooms, showers, or laundry facilities. All gear - everything the kids have with them - is issued by Aspiro to ensure safety and the integrity of the program (to prevent anyone bringing in drugs, snacks, or other contraband). At base camp each week, the kids get to shower and launder etc. It is a strenuous time emotionally as well., with intensive counseling, including during the 2 days at base camp with the licensed therapists. Jamie, our son's counselor, was phenomenal with him. At base camp, the kids turn in at least one letter each week, and get letters from home. They read, play frisbee, "aggressively wade" in the river, and unwind before the next week begins. Most participants in Vantage Point stay from 8 to 12 weeks before continuing on to a residential program in Utah (one place is associated with Aspiro - it's called Gateway Academy) or Montana. Our son benefited a lot from the Vantage Point program. He was very apprehensive prior to going, but he was very encouraged by the two Aspiro guides who came to the airport to meet us. Some kids need to be picked up at home (typically without warning them in advance), bundled up, and taken to the camp by special staff, but most come with one or both parents to SLC airport to get picked up there. The parents do not come with the participant to the base camp. Campers for Vantage Point typically arrive on a Wednesday or Thursday, and leave on a Wednesday some weeks later. About a month into the program, the families come to Sundance Resort to meet for a family seminar that includes two days of family counseling with your child. There is a rock climbing session, in which the kids really excel and forms a bonding experience for the family. There are also several meals together including one out at a restaurant, which is a big hit with kids who have been eating a very limited diet for several weeks before and after. I wrote this review primarily for other parents, so you would know what to expect of Vantage Point. It is a great program for our son. We worked with an educational consultant (Bodin Group) to make this decision, and they also suggested one other program. We might have been happy with that one, but Aspiro Vantage Point worked for us. Definitely go to the family seminar - try to time your kid's arrival at Aspiro to be about a month before the family seminar, because at that point they will have made some good progress. Be sure to do your "gratitude letter" in advance (and print it out), because that is an essential part of the program. If you are anything like our family, your life will be much better after Aspiro Vantage Point. If any kids read this who are going to Aspiro - it's OK to feel apprehensive, but everyone there is friendly and helpful. The physical activity will be hard, but no more than you can bear (although you might argue with me after the hike up Tabby mountain). All the other kids there face the same challenges you face every day, and the counselors and kids really know how to help you. Your life will be much better after Aspiro Vantage Point.

The organization lied to my parents and promised to give him more food, but it never happened. He slept in negative temperatures with shitty sleeping equipment and the program physiologically altered the kids minds and changed their paradigm making them feel different and far from the normal teenager. NEVER PLACE A KID IN THIS PROGRAM. Misleading marketing to profit for themselves, absolutely ridiculous how they're still in existence.

This is a beautiful, tiny campground nestled in the pine trees. There are 8 campsites, including…read moreone group site, and sites 4-6 were the prettiest and most private, in my opinion. There are 2 bathrooms, both of which were very clean, but one was out of toilet paper. I have read this in several reviews, so make sure to bring your own just in case. The campground is off a gravel road about 5 miles up the canyon. The road is used mainly for ATVs and there are many blind corners, so be careful when driving so you don't hurt anyone! I wouldn't recommend driving up the road at night or with a giant trailer, and I was a bit worried about my vintage trailer rattling apart on the drive during the day. But it was fine, luckily. There was a small lake/pond nearby that seems to be popular for fishing and canoeing. It also probably breeds mosquitos, as my legs have never been so eaten up and swollen from bites before! I even had 2 pairs of pants on and bug spray soaking my skin and pants. I got bitten between the fingers a few times too, which was a first for me. When I visited in July, the weather was only maybe 5 degrees cooler at the campground than in the valley, so bring a fan if you like cool air while you sleep. Site 5 is beautiful, although there was sometimes a whiff of bathroom stink as it is immediately across from it. It didn't bother me, though. Small drawbacks aside, this was a beautiful campground, there was only 1 other site in use while we were there, and we ooohed and ahhhed over the Milky Way at night. Doesn't get much better than that!

This is a popular campground, so you will need to make your reservation well in advance, especially for the nicer/more private sites. I visited on Labor Day weekend, and the campground was full. Lots of kids running around. But our campsite (B20) was very secluded and private, and we had a wonderful stay! The location was close to the bathroom but not too close to our neighbors, which is our favorite combination. The lake was extremely low.. seeing the boat dock was almost comical, as it looked like a high dive over a long stretch of rocks! But it was also sad to see this, as I'm sure the lake was even more beautiful when full. My picture makes the lake look like a tiny swamp, but there was actually room for paddle boarding/kayaking. I didn't go in, as walking through muck to get to the actual water isn't really my thing. But I can see how it would be a fun day for a family with kids. Many of the campsites didn't have a private feel to them, so I would recommend browsing pictures online before choosing your site if you're picky like me. I did an inventory of the most private sites, so few free to msg me for more info. I will be back here for sure!

I had no idea it would be that way, but it was a gorgeous drive. It's $10 for the day, on your honor since there was no guard in the booth. Be sure to grab an envelope to stick in your dashboard! The lake and beach area is BEAUTIFUL! Bring your own life jacket, paddle boards, rafts, and kayaks out and enjoy the sunshine. The lake doesn't seem to have much of a current, so it's a great place to float and row around! I believe you can fish as well. You may be able to find a picnic bench or two, but plan on bringing your own seating and overhead coverings, because it is HOT in August! This is definitely a hidden gem in the Uinta National Forest, and we will be back! Enjoy!
