About this map

Moslander Reservoir and the high ridges of southwestern Wyoming define this high-altitude landscape in Uinta County. The area is characterized by a network of seasonal and perennial drainages, including Van Tassel Cr and W Muddy Cr, which carve through prominent landforms like Moslander Ridge and Twenty Knoll. Evidence of the region's historic grazing and ranching economy is preserved in the route of the Blacks Fork Sheep Trl, which traverses the central and eastern portions of the quadrangle.

Water management in this arid environment is highlighted by the presence of Vacher Reservoir and Seventeen Spring. These features, along with names like Mumford Ridge and Beaver Dam Hollow, provide a record of local land use and geographic naming conventions. Secondary routes such as Co Rd 167 and Co Rd 27 represent the sparse but vital infrastructure connecting these points across the open terrain.
