1972 Map of Deadman Mountain

About this map

The Wasatch National Forest defines the high-altitude landscape of this 1970s survey, where the Bear River and its various forks and canals create a complex hydraulic network across the Utah and Wyoming border. This area serves as a significant intersection of recreational and ranching land use, evidenced by the presence of the Hill Air Force Base Recreation Camp and traditional properties like Burts-Miller Ranch and Island Ranch. The map captures the infrastructure of water management in the region, featuring the Hilliard Canal and Hilliard East Fork Canal, which navigate the terrain alongside notable peaks such as Lone Mountain and the eponymous Deadman Mountain. Managed access is indicated by the Bear River Ranger Sta and seasonal sites like Bear River Campground, while more remote pockets are marked by the Grassy Lakes and a network of jeep trails reaching into the mountain draws.
