2011 Map of Candland Mountain

About this map

Electric Lake and its corresponding Electric Lake Dam dominate the northern drainage of this high-altitude landscape in the Wasatch Plateau. The map documents an area defined by resource extraction and water management, where numerous mines such as the Fireside Mine and Huntington Mine are situated among the deep drainages of Cox Canyon and Ragman Canyon. The infrastructure of the early 21st century is visible through the network of forest roads and water reservoirs including the Cleveland Reservoir and Miller Flat Reservoir. These landmarks, along with Seeley Ranch, reflect a long-standing history of seasonal grazing and industrial use. Topographically, the map centers on the massive bulk of Candland Mountain, surrounded by smaller peaks like Monument Peak and Bald Mountain, which dictate the flow of Huntington Creek and its many tributaries.
