About this map

Explorer Peak and Kweeyahgut Peak anchor this high-elevation landscape within the High Uintas Wilderness, straddling the border of the Wasatch National Forest and Ashley National Forest. The area is defined by a dense concentration of alpine lakes, including Dead Horse Lake, Kyhv Lake, and Sea Lion Lake, which drain through the complex network of Rock Creek. A sophisticated system of wilderness trails, such as the Uinta Highline Trl and Ottoson Trl, connects prominent landmarks like Dead Horse Pass and the Ottoson Basin. The presence of features like Sinowauvf Basin and Kweeyahgut Peak reflects an indigenous naming layer preserved in modern topographic records, providing a geographical record of the cultural heritage embedded in this remote portion of the Uinta Mountains in Duchesne County.
