About this map

Geyser Peak and the surrounding high-elevation water systems define this portion of Sevier County. The landscape is characterized by a network of basins and hollows, including Solomon Basin and Garden Basin, which collect runoff into numerous small alpine lakes and reservoirs. Significant water management features such as Solomon Reservoir and Floating Island Lake are linked by Solomon Creek, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the area.

Transit through this high-altitude terrain is marked by Hogan Pass, where forest roads provide access to specialized locations like the Desert View Area. The presence of named water sources like Birch Spring and Riley Spring alongside peaks such as Windy Ridge suggests a geography shaped by traditional land use and grazing. This survey provides a modern record of the region's topography, highlighting the density of mountain ponds including Meeks Lake and Rock Lake.
