1950 Map of Burnt Cabin Gorge

About this map

Ashley National Forest dominates this mid-century topographic study, where the high terrain of the Uinta Mountains drops into the deep incision of Burnt Cabin Gorge. The landscape reflects a ranching and livestock economy, evidenced by the Diamond Counting Corral and the Counting Station Reservoir situated near the head of Reader Creek. Water management is central to the area's utility, with various springs and small catchments like Association Reservoir and Bassett Spring distributed across the plateau.
