1963 Map of Elk Park

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

High-elevation parks and timberlands dominate this portion of the Ashley National Forest along the border of Daggett and Uintah counties. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of several major drainages, including the various forks of South Fork Ashley Creek and Center Fork Ashley Creek, which carve through the high plateaus. Evidence of early land management and frontier transit is visible in the Old Military Reservation Boundary and the Uinta Highline Trail crossing the northern terrain. Named for local figures or descriptive landforms, scattered mountain meadows like Pat Carroll Park, Soldier Park, and Meadow Park provided critical clearings within the dense forest. In the south, the Trout Creek Guard Sta and the Oaks Park Reservoir signify the mid-century infrastructure required for forest oversight and water storage in this mountain environment.
