2020 Map of Fox Lake

About this map

Wasatch National Forest and Ashley National Forest meet in this high-altitude alpine environment within the Uinta Mountains. The landscape is defined by its glacial hydrology, featuring a dense network of water bodies including Fox Lake, Samuels Lake, and the Kidney Lakes. The Uinta River and Shale Cr drain these heights, while the presence of the Shale Creek Bridge marks a specific point of human infrastructure in this backcountry. Significant peaks like Thompson Peak and North Burro Peak tower over mountain passes such as Thompson Pass and Fox Queant Pass. This 2020 record captures a wilderness used for remote recreation and conservation, traced by high-country routes like the Uinta Highline and N Slope Highline A.
