2017 Map of Hidden Lake

About this map

Wasatch National Forest dominates this mountain landscape in Summit County, where the upper reaches of the Weber River and the South Fork Weber River converge. The topography is defined by significant elevation changes, from the heights of the Mahogany Hills down to high-mountain basins and drainages. The map records a modern network of forest access and residential roads such as Jim Bridger Rd and Buffalo Loop, alongside named canyons and hollows that speak to the area's surveying and ranching history. Small bodies of water like Hidden Lake and Shingle Mill Lake are tucked into the drainages of Nobletts Creek and Shingle Mill Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology of the western Uintas. Sparse settlements like Whites Basin and Frazier Hollow indicate the seasonal and low-density nature of human habitation in this alpine environment.
