2020 Map of Lake Mountain

About this map

Ashley National Forest dominates this high-elevation landscape in Uintah County, where complex hydrology and sharp relief define the terrain. The presence of features like the Dry Fork Flume and a dense network of water sources, including Mule Hollow Spring and Warden Spring, suggests a region managed for seasonal resource use and water distribution. To the east, the Deep Creek Ranch marks one of the few named settlements in a region otherwise characterized by geological landmarks such as the Chalk Cliffs and Sawtooth Ridge. Navigation through this backcountry is facilitated by primitive routes like Treaty Rd and Paradise Park Rd, which wind between significant peaks such as Mosby Mtn and Lake Mountain. The naming conventions here, from Weasel Point to Alcorn Hollow, reflect a history of local exploration and the essential reliance on the many seeps and springs scattered throughout the Little Water Hills.
