About this map

Fishlake National Forest encompasses this high-elevation landscape along the border of Millard and Sevier counties. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent summits including Beehive Peak, Willow Creek Peak, and Coffee Peak, which overlook a network of deep drainages such as Trough Canyon and Strawberry Canyon. The map reveals a high-country environment where water sources like Willow Creek Spring were critical for early transit and land use.

Transit through these canyons and ridges is primarily facilitated by a system of trails and primitive routes, such as the Palute (D-1) and the Richfield-Pioneer road. Distinctive plateau-like features such as Ezras Flat and Frogs Flat break the vertical relief of the ridges. The placement of Trail 1425 and Trail 1427 suggests historical livestock or recreational corridors through Sweetwater Canyon and across Nightgown Ridge, providing a detailed look at the backcountry infrastructure of central Utah.
