2020 Map of Phil Pico Mountain

About this map

Ashley National Forest and the rugged borderlands between Utah and Wyoming define this high-elevation landscape. The topography is dominated by the prominence of Phil Pico Mtn and Corson Peak, with drainage systems like Lodgepole Cr and Birch Cr cutting through the terrain. A notable historical alignment, the Carter Military road, traverses the central portion of the map, passing by the Carter Dugway and into the timbered reaches of the forest. Water management is a critical feature of the region, evidenced by the Interstate Canal near the northern state line and the complex of Sheep Cr Canal, Long Park Reservoir, and various irrigation structures like the Lodgepole Canal Bridge. These features illustrate the intersection of historical military transportation routes and the 20th-century development of water infrastructure required for high-altitude land use.
