2011 Map of Hayden Peak

About this map

Hayden Peak and Mount Agassiz anchor this high-elevation survey of the Uinta Mountains during the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by its glacial hydrology, where the Stillwater Fork and Duchesne River begin their descent through deep alpine basins. A dense network of high-country water bodies, including Naturalist Basin and the Four Lakes Basin, illustrates the complex drainage patterns of the region. The map documents recreation infrastructure at Hayden Pass, featuring the Highline Trail Head Campground and Butterfly Campground along the winding mountain road. Researchers can trace the varied topography from Middle Basin to Rocky Sea Pass, witnessing the source waters of major river systems and the placement of remote landmarks like Amethyst Lake and Kermsuh Lake across the rocky terrain.
