About this map

The Ashley National Forest and Uinta National Forest converge in this high-elevation landscape, where administrative and tribal history intersect along the Old Indian Treaty Bdy. The terrain is defined by the massive spine of Long Ridge and the plateau of Flat Horse Ridge, dropping into complex drainages like Mill Hollow and the West Fork Avintaquin Creek.

Resource management and high-country travel are evident through the Indian Guard Station and the various Jeep Trails that navigate the ridges. Water sources are critical markers in this environment, with numerous named springs such as Banjo Spring and Ostler Spring, alongside small-scale infrastructure like Bown Corral Reservoir. This map documents a rugged interior of Utah where county lines for Wasatch Co, Duchesne Co, and Utah Co meet at high points like Cat Peak.
