2014 Map of Minnie Maud Creek West

About this map

Roan Cliffs and Argyle Ridge define the complex geography of this high-elevation landscape along the boundary of Duchesne and Carbon counties. This 2014 survey reveals a network of canyons and ridges dissected by watercourses like Minnie Maud Cr and Summit Creek. The map documents high-country landmarks such as Orson Bedground and the broad expanse of Whitmore Park, illustrating how the terrain dictated early route-finding. Remote outposts and localities like Emma Park are connected by a system of primitive and secondary roads, including Pole Canyon Rd and Brook Meadows Rd, which follow the natural contours of the drainages. Genealogists and local historians can trace the transition from narrow canyons like Maynard Canyon to the more open meadows of Brook Meadow, providing a detailed view of this isolated section of the Uinta Basin's southern rim.
