Welcome MB,
LH2 gave some good info on both. I'll add for the Weber that this time of year you need to fish below Lost Creek as almost no water is coming out of Echo reservoir. However in a couple months they'll start letting water out and it's good fishing above Lost Creek as well. When it rains hard or a lot of runoff entering the Weber down below sometimes the only place worth flyfishing will be further up below Echo to Lost Creek or possibly a bit further down. After rains or snowmelt check the USGS site for water flows and don't be too discouraged if it's blown out below as you drive up the canyon. It's almost always fishable somewhere year round. Some of my best fishing on the Weber have been on those cloudy rainy days when the big browns lose their usual caution.
