2014 Map of Birdseye

About this map

The settlement of Birdseye sits at the heart of this landscape, positioned along the corridor where Thistle Cr flows toward the north. This high-elevation terrain is defined by the steep rises of the Wasatch Range, anchored by the massive profiles of Loafer Mtn and Santaquin Peak in the northwest. The map documents a complex network of canyons and hollows, including Wildcat Canyon and Mud Hollow, that drain the surrounding highlands of the Uinta National Forest and Manti-Lasal National Forest. Local infrastructure is concentrated along Us-89, which connects small locales like Pines and the resource-named Asphaltum. Genealogical and local history interest is found in specific landmarks such as Nielson Knoll and the water sources like Peery Mill Spring and Cottonwood Spring that supported early ranching or settlement efforts in these mountain valleys.
