About this map

The Christmas Meadow Summer Home Area is a focal point of seasonal activity within this high-elevation stretch of the Wasatch National Forest. The landscape is defined by the glacial carved basins and the headwaters of several major forks, including the Stillwater Fork, Hayden Fork, and Main Fork. The terrain transitions from riparian meadows near Christmas Meadows to prominent alpine summits such as Kletting Peak and Lamotte Peak.

Evidence of historical forest dynamics is noted at Old Burn north of Boundary Creek, while recreational infrastructure is well-established through sites like the Wolverine Recreation Trailhead and Stillwater Campground. The map also captures the numerous alpine lakes that dot the high basins, from Amethyst Lake in the southeast to the descriptive Hell Hole Lake further west, illustrating the hydrology that feeds the Bear River system.
