About this map

Hoy Mountain and Wild Mtn dominate this high-desert landscape where the borders of Utah and Colorado meet. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures a remote corner of Uintah County, characterized by a complex network of seasonal drainage and localized water management. The mapping of Pot Cr, Crouse Cr, and Dry Cr shows how water moves through this arid terrain, feeding into small, isolated catchments like Tittle Reservoir, Miles Reservoir, and Offield Reservoir.

A network of primitive roads provides the primary access for land management and recreation in this border region. Routes such as Pot Creek Rd and Offield Rd navigate the contours between the peaks, while Wild Mountain Rd and Gravel Pit Rd suggest the practical, resource-oriented nature of human activity in the area. The map clearly delineates the intersection of Daggett Co, Uintah Co, and Moffat Co, highlighting the administrative complexity of these high mountain divides.
