1905 Map of Gilbert Peak

About this map

The high alpine crest of the Uinta Mountains dominates this early twentieth-century survey, conducted by E. M. Douglas and his team before the expansion of modern infrastructure. The landscape is defined by massive peaks like Kings Peaks and Gilbert Peak, surrounded by a complex network of glacial basins and high-altitude lakes, including Lake Atwood and Fish Lake. The survey highlights the early presence of the Ashley National Forest and Wasatch National Forest, where remote outposts like Smiths Ranch and Edwards Ranch represent the sparse human footprint in this wilderness.
