1963 Map of Elk Park

About this map

The high-elevation landscape of the Uinta Mountains is captured here during the early 1960s, showing a region defined by alpine parks and headwater streams within the Ashley National Forest. Named clearings such as Pat Carroll Park, Soldier Park, and Government Park dot the terrain south of the Old Military Reservation Boundary, suggesting a history of seasonal grazing and forest management. The presence of the Trout Creek Guard Sta and the Uinta Highline Trail highlights the area's role as a managed wilderness and recreational corridor.
