About this map

Buck Knoll rises as a prominent landmark in this Duchesne County landscape, where deep drainages and named hollows define the high-altitude terrain. The 2014 survey documents a network of canyons that carve through the plateau, including the notable Right Fork Indian Canyon and Left Fork Indian Canyon which converge in the eastern portion of the map. These natural corridors serve as the primary conduits for local travel, with Us-191 following the winding course of the canyons.

Transportation is further marked by Lake Canyon Rd and Co Road 21, providing access to remote features like Wolf Den Hollow, Witch Hollow, and Lion Hollow. The presence of ephemeral water features like Cripple Cr and the low-lying Lake Draw underscores the arid character of the region. This map is an essential reference for understanding the complex topography and drainage patterns of the western Uintah Basin at the start of the 21st century.
