About this map

Ashley National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Duchesne County, where alpine waters feed into the Lake Fork River and Yellowstone Creek. The 2020 topography highlights a transition from the peaks of Lake Fork Mountain down through a series of named glacial depressions and basins, including Cow Park, Mill Park, and Bear Park. To the west, the expansive Moon Lake serves as a primary hydrological landmark, connected to local irrigation infrastructure via the Upper Moon Lake Canal Bridge.

Water management and forest access define the human footprint here, evidenced by the Twin Pots Reservoir and the winding Petty Mountain Loop road system. Smaller drainage features like Raspberry Draw and Mackentire Draw illustrate the complex erosion patterns of the Uinta Mountains. This map is an essential reference for understanding the modern backcountry road network, including the Pc-Hc Cutoff, and the distribution of perennial water sources like McKune Spring.
