1969 Map of Matts Summit

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Ashley National Forest and the high plateaus of the Roan Cliffs dominate this topographic study of the Utah backcountry. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the forested heights of Indian Treaty Ridge down to the open expanse of Emma Park. This high-altitude basin serves as a natural corridor between the mountain ranges, where early water management is evident at Little Boulder Dam and Pace Pond. Settlement is sparse, represented only by isolated landmarks like the Downard Cabin and the namesake Matts Summit. The network of Jeep Trails and drainage features such as Willow Creek and Deep Canyon trace a remote territory focused on livestock grazing and resource extraction, including a Gravel Pit located near the Duchesne and Carbon county line.
