2012 Map of Kemmerer Reservoir

About this map

Lake Viva Naughton and the Kemmerer Reservoir dominate this high-altitude landscape in Lincoln County, where the Hams Fork river system feeds critical water storage. The topography is defined by the broad Hams Fork Plateau and the deeply incised Quakenasp Canyon to the southeast. Water management and drainage are the central themes here, with numerous tributaries such as Fish Cr, Robinson Cr, and Meadow Cr descending from the west into the primary valley. Small landmarks like Curtis Spring and geological catchments like Schuster Basin indicate a terrain where every water source is significant. The 2012 survey illustrates the infrastructure supporting these reservoirs, showing the roads and trails that navigate the high country between the plateau and the canyon floor.
