About this map

Granger Mountain and the deep drainages of the Uinta National Forest define this 1967 survey of Utah County's high country. The landscape is oriented around the forks of Hobble Creek, where the Hobble Cr Guard Sta serves as a central point for forest management. This era shows the development of outdoor recreation in the Wasatch Range, documented by numerous sites including Camp Hobble Creek, Balsam Campground, and Kolob Campground.

Evidence of historical access remains through a network of jeep trails and footpaths that thread through Dry Canyon, Kirkman Hollow, and the expansive Wanrhodes Basin. The map captures a moment when traditional forest stewardship and increasing public use met, preserving the locations of specialized areas like the Cherry Picnic Area and Sulphur Campground along the creek banks. These labels provide a detailed record for those tracing land use and geographic history in the canyon lands east of the Utah Valley.
