About this map

Chamberlain Mountain and the high peaks of the Garnet Range define this Powell County landscape, which was field checked in 1965. The Blackfoot River cuts across the northern edge of the sheet, fed by a series of drainage systems including Chamberlain Creek, Pearson Creek, and Lobe Creek. These watercourses carve through steep elevation, flowing from prominent summits like Granite Mountain and Green Mountain.

Evidence of historical resource exploration appears in the south at a Prospect located near Deer Gulch. The presence of the Wales Creek Reservoir and the uniquely named Yourname Creek highlights the area's water management and nomenclature during the mid-1960s. This survey, compiled from 1961 aerial photography, provides a clear view of the mountain terrain before modern development, showing the winding primitive roads that provided access to Dunigan Mountain and Frazier Creek.
