About this map

Ashley National Forest dominates this section of Duchesne County, Utah, where the high desert plateau is deeply incised by a network of drainage systems. The topography is defined by sharp elevation changes, particularly along the Bad Land Cliffs in the southern portion of the quadrangle. This area serves as a significant watershed, with Antelope Creek and its major tributaries, including Right Fork Antelope Canyon and Left Fork Antelope Canyon, carving through the landscape.

Surface transport is largely limited to unpaved routes like Five Mile Draw Rd, which navigates the complex terrain between Alkali Canyon and Fivemile Canyon. The presence of Gilsonite Draw in the northeast reflects the region's geological heritage, while other features like Brundage Canyon, Nutters Canyon, and Chokecherry Canyon illustrate the intricate erosional patterns typical of the Uinta Basin's southern rim.
