2014 Map of Flaming Gorge

About this map

Ashley National Forest dominates this 2014 survey of the Utah-Wyoming borderlands, where the high desert terrain meets the expansive waters of the Flaming Gorge Reservoir. The landscape is defined by its deep, winding canyons and prominent topographical markers like the volcanic landmark Boars Tusk and the steep elevation of Bare Top Mtn. The small settlement of Greendale sits near the southern edge of the sheet, providing a human anchor in a territory largely characterized by dramatic drainage systems like N Skull Cr and Red Canyon. This map documents the complex management of the reservoir's recreation areas, showing the interplay between forest roads such as Forest Rd 94 and the water-filled recesses of Hideout Canyon and Horseshoe Canyon. It captures a modern state of the reservoir's shoreline and the diverse plateaus, including Antelope Flat, that surround this high-altitude water body.
