About this map

The Uinta River carves through the heart of this landscape, marking the boundary between the Ashley National Forest and the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation. This intersection of federal and tribal lands is characterized by a complex system of water management and mountain drainage. Significant infrastructure along the river includes the Uintah Powerplant, a Gaging Station, and multiple crossings such as the Upper Uinta Canal Bridge and the Uinta River Bridge. The terrain is punctuated by family-named landmarks like Henry Olsen Draw and unique water sources like Mugwump Spring and Grits Spring. To the south, the Uintah Canyon Youth Camp provides a focal point for settlement amidst the vast topography of Pole Mountain and the expansive Starr Flat.
