2017 Map of Asphalt Wash

About this map

The White River winds through the heart of this Uintah County landscape, carving a prominent path through the arid terrain of eastern Utah. The map detail highlights a complex system of drainage basins and canyons, including the sprawling Asphalt Wash and the distinct formation of the Seven Sisters. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a precise view of the geographic relief and the few established access routes like Atchee Wash Rd and Saddle Tree Draw Rd. Local history and geology are tied to features such as Atchees Wash, Southam Cyn, and Hanging Rock Hollow, which define the rugged character of the region. The convergence of the Center Fork Asphalt-Wash and the West Fork Asphalt Wash illustrates the hydrological network that shapes this territory, offering essential data for those studying the physical evolution of the Uintah Basin.
