About this map

Fishlake National Forest defines the high-country landscape of central Utah on this 2001 revision, where the Sevier River carves south through the deep Marysvale Canyon. The topography reveals a land shaped by both geologic force and historic industry, notably at the Yellow Cougar Mine and various prospects near the Sevier and Piute County line. The era's recreational and cultural footprint is evident at Freemont Indian State Park and the famous Big Rock Candy Mountain.

Water management and high-altitude geography are critical here, with Clear Creek and the Freemont River feeding into the larger river system. Numerous high-country water sources such as Willow Lake, Sargent Lake, and Twin Lake Springs dot the slopes of Sargent Mountain. This detailed survey also tracks local infrastructure, from the Sevier substation and water tank to the Roadside Park along the canyon floor.
