About this map

Uinta Basin terrain dominates this landscape along the border of Duchesne and Uintah counties. The area is defined by a series of named high points and basins, including the prominent Crow Knoll and the adjacent Sheep Knolls. Water management is central to the land's utility, evidenced by a network of catchments such as Kilroy Reservoir, Flu Knoll Reservoir, and Coleman Reservoir. These features suggest a landscape organized for ranching or resource extraction within the arid stretches of the Little Desert.

Drainage patterns are clearly etched into the earth by seasonal waterways like Big Wash, Petes Wash, and Fourmile Wash. A network of primitive roads, including Big Wash Rd and Wilkin Ridge Rd, provides access to these remote reaches. The survey also marks topographic landmarks like Eightmile Flat and Flu Knolls, offering a detailed view of the regional geography before modern development or environmental shifts altered these drainage basins.
