2023 Map of Bridger Lake

About this map

Stateline Reservoir and Grahams Reservoir dominate the northern landscape of this high-altitude region along the border of Utah and Wyoming. Situated within the Wasatch National Forest and the northern reaches of the High Uintas Wilderness, the area is defined by a network of drainage systems including West Fork Smiths Fork and East Fork Smiths Fork. The map documents a transition from the lower Johnson Meadows and Gilbert Meadow to the higher alpine terrain of Mansfield Meadows and Big Meadows. A dense system of recreation paths and access routes, such as the North Slope Highline Trl and Gilbert Creek Rd, illustrates the area's development for modern wilderness access. The presence of Bridger Lake and China Lake highlights the concentrated water resources that have historically dictated movement through these mountain passes.
