1968 Map of Hilgard Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Fish Lake National Forest dominates this 1968 landscape, where the high-elevation terrain of the U M Plateau transitions into a network of steep canyons and alpine basins. The map illustrates a remote backcountry managed through sites like the Clear Creek Guard Station and a system of primitive routes, including the Jeep Trail and Pack Trail networks. Water management for the surrounding Sevier County region is evident through high-mountain catchments such as Sheep Valley Res and Willies Flat Reservoir. Distinctive geologic and topographical markers like the volcanic-looking The Pot Holes, the prominent Hilgard Mtn, and Windstorm Peak define the horizon. This survey captures the mid-century infrastructure of the national forest before modern recreation became more formalized, preserving the locations of springs, hollows, and family-named landmarks like Yens Peters Gap.
