2002 Map of Deer Creek Lake

About this map

Boulder Mountain dominates this high-altitude landscape within the Dixie National Forest, where a complex network of water management features highlights the importance of mountain runoff to the surrounding Garfield County region. Numerous water storage sites, including Kings Pasture Reservoir, Oak Creek Reservoir, and Moosman Reservoir, are distributed across the plateau and its drainages. This 2002 revision shows the modern recreational and administrative character of the forest, featuring the Great Western Trail and the All American Road (Highway 12) cutting through the southern sections. Local history is reflected in the numerous named points and pastures, such as Baker Pasture and Sawmill Point, which suggest early grazing and timber activity. The map is notably dense with small alpine lakes like Chriss Lake and Deer Creek Lake, situated among the distinct geological formations of The Terrace and The Baldys.
