About this map

Ashley National Forest dominates this landscape on the border of Daggett and Uintah counties, where the high Uinta mountain range meets the southern reaches of the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area. The topography is defined by significant vertical relief, rising toward high points like Speirs Peak and Mount Lena. Settlement is sparse, focused around the Greendale and Greendale Junction areas in the northwest, which serve as access points to the recreation lands.

A network of drainage draws and springs, including Greens Draw and Buck Spring, crisscross the mountain slopes. The map traces recreational and seasonal habitation patterns through features like the Deer Lodge Summer Home Area and the isolated Stringham Cabin. Remote access is facilitated by the Uinta Highline Trail, which traverses the high ground near Limestone Mountain, illustrating the region's importance for wilderness travel and forest management in the late 20th century.
