About this map

Mount Ellen Peak anchors this high-altitude landscape in Garfield County, revealing the complex drainage and summit systems of the Henry Mountains in the mid-1980s. The terrain is marked by a series of high ridges and basins, such as Bromide Basin and Garden Basin, which served as focal points for mining exploration. Numerous Prospects and a specific Prospect near Kimble and Turner Peak indicate the historical mineral interest in this remote section of Utah. A network of vital water sources is documented across the slopes, including Airplane Spring, Birch Spring, and Box Spring. These springs and seasonal flows like Bullfrog Creek were essential for the cattlemen and miners who traversed passes such as Wickup Pass and Pennellen Pass. The geography is further defined by distinct landmarks like Durfey Butte and the sharp profile of The Horn.
