2023 Map of Kings Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Kings Peak, the highest point in Utah, towers over this high-altitude landscape where the Wasatch National Forest, Ashley National Forest, and the High Uintas Wilderness meet. This survey focuses on the dramatic topography of the Uinta Range, characterized by expansive glacial cirques like Painter Basin and Gilbert Creek Basin. The map detail traces the critical headwaters of the Uinta River and West Fork Beaver Creek, which drain these alpine heights. Historically significant backcountry routes are meticulously documented, including the long-distance Uinta Highline Trl and the Henry's Fork Trl, which provide access to Gunsight Pass and Gilbert Peak. The map highlights the intersection of the Summit and Duchesne county boundary, following the ridge line that separates these alpine watersheds. Remote water bodies such as Gilbert Lake, Milk Lake, and the clustered Painter Lakes populate the basins between these towering summits.
