1906 Map of Gilbert Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

The Uinta Mountains dominate this high-altitude survey, which straddles the rugged boundary between Utah and Wyoming during the first decade of the twentieth century. Within the Ashley National Forest and Wasatch National Forest, the topography is defined by glaciated basins and prominent summits including Kings Peaks, Gilbert Peak, and Mt Emmons. The landscape is a complex network of alpine watersheds feeding the Yellowstone Creek, Lake Fork, and Henry's Fork. Early twentieth-century land use is marked by isolated outposts such as Smith's Ranch and Edwards Ranch, which reflect the region's history of high-country ranching. The map captures the area before modern infrastructure arrived, showing traditional grazing sites like Gilbert Meadows and Beaver Meadows alongside natural landmarks such as Red Castle and Lake Atwood.
