About this map

Fishlake National Forest dominates this section of the Tushar Mountains, where the Sevier River carves a deep path through Clear Creek Canyon. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation shifts and a network of canyons including Sam Stowe Canyon and Skinner Canyon. Cultural history is anchored by Fremont State Park and the Fremont Museum Loop, preserving the legacy of early inhabitants near the confluence of Clear Creek and the river.

Modern transportation infrastructure, including Sevier Parkway and Powerline Trail, follows the natural contours of the land, connecting small settlements like Sevier and Pittsburg. Named landmarks such as the iconic Big Rock Candy Mountain and Sargent Mountain rise above the valleys, while high-altitude water sources like Willow Lake and Twin Lake dot the mountain slopes. The map also traces historical routes like Old Highway 89, illustrating the evolution of travel through this passage.
