2023 Map of Dry Mountain

About this map

Ashley National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Duchesne County, where the topography is defined by a series of high basins and drainages. The map details a network of challenging routes including the McAfee Basin High Country Trl and the McAfee Bypass Trl, which provide access to the remote McAfee Basin and the slopes of Mount Albert. The hydrology is centered around Rock Creek, which is fed by numerous seasonal flows and springs like Birch Spring and Pigeon Water Spring. High mountain passes such as Farm Creek Pass and Mountain Sheep Pass mark the transit points between deep hollows and elevated flats. The southern portion of the sheet levels out slightly into areas like Daniel Flat and Sadies Flat, providing a contrast to the steep terrain around Dry Mtn and Bald Knoll.
