About this map

The Wasatch National Forest straddles the high-altitude border of Utah and Wyoming, where the drainage of Beaver Creek carves through the Bald Range. This 1967 survey documents a high-country landscape defined by resource management and recreation, anchored by the Hole in the Rock Guard Station and nearby Hole in the Rock Gaging Station. To the east, Coal Mine Hill indicates historical mineral interest, while the presence of a Coal Mine and a Drill Hole in Gregory Basin suggest early extractive exploration in this remote terrain.

Migration and utility through the mountains are marked by an extensive network of tracks, including the Thompson Trail and several nameless pack trails and jeep trails. These routes connect points like Georges Park and the Hoop Lake Campground. The map also captures the precise intersection of the Uinta Co and Summit Co line, providing a clear record of the jurisdictional boundaries that divide this rugged segment of the Burnt Ridge.
