About this map

Ashley National Forest and the rugged northern reaches of the West Tavaputs Plateau dominate this landscape along the boundary of Duchesne and Carbon Counties. The region is defined by a dense network of drainage systems, most notably Nine Mile Creek and Antelope Creek, which have carved deep corridors such as Argyle Canyon and Ninemile Canyon into the high desert terrain.

Industrial activity is centered on the Stone Cabin Gas Field, where specialized infrastructure like Stone Cabin Trl and Prickly Pear Trl provides access to remote resource sites. Other significant geological and navigational landmarks include the prominent Bad Land Cliffs and high-elevation points like Rye Patch. These features illustrate the intersection of natural wilderness and modern energy extraction in this part of eastern Utah.
