1967 Map of Elizabeth Mtn

About this map

Wasatch National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Uinta and Summit Counties. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of major drainage systems, including the West Fork Blacks Fork and Mill Creek, which flow through deep glacial valleys. Administrative presence in this backcountry is marked by the Mill Creek Guard Station, while high-elevation water bodies like Elizabeth Lake, Fish Lake, and Moslander Reservoir are pockets of activity in the wilderness. The map captures the rugged geography of the Uinta Range, characterized by prominent features such as Elizabeth Mountain, Elizabeth Pass, and the curiously named rock formation known as The Woodpile. A network of established Trails and Jeep Trails provides the only access through these steep corridors, reflecting the area's role as a managed natural resource and recreation zone during the mid-1960s.
