In addition to
the stock, dairy, and lumber industries, Kamas has been for a number
of years the headquarters of the Wasatch National Forest and plays an
important role as a supply station for those hiking or camping in the
nearby Uinta Mountains and the Granddaddy Lake region. Thousands of
visitors travel through Kamas each year en route to the mountains. Also
a popular attraction is Kamas's annual Twenty-Fourth of July rodeo,
an event which gives local cowboys a chance to show their skill before
enthusiastic crowds.
