2001 Map of Cove Fort

About this map

Old Cove Fort stands as the historical anchor of this landscape, situated near the intersection of modern transport corridors and ancient mountain trails. This 2001 revision illustrates a complex intersection of land uses, from the preserved stone fortification at Cove Fort to the industrial activity at Sulphurdale. The terrain rises sharply from the Alkali Flat into the high elevations of the Tushar Mountains, much of which is managed as part of the Fish Lake National Forest. Evidence of natural resource extraction and exploration is visible throughout the slopes, marked by numerous Prospects, a Geothermal Well, and several Pits. These features, alongside family-named landmarks and water sources like Dead Cow Spring and Shingle Creek Meadows, trace the long history of human effort to harness the water and minerals of this arid high-altitude environment.
