1996 Map of Phil Pico Mountain

About this map

Ashley National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Utah and Wyoming, where the dramatic peaks of Phil Pico Mountain and Corson Peak overlook a complex network of alpine hydrology. The map details an environment defined by the intersection of early military history and modern water management. The historical Carter Military Trail and the Carter Dugway wind through the terrain, tracing a path used for logistics during the region's territorial era. Below these ridges, the landscape opens into grazing and drainage areas like Hickerson Park and Sheep Creek Park. A series of infrastructure points, including the Lodgepole Canal Bridge and Sheep Creek Canal Bridge, illustrate the intricate effort to divert and manage water through the high country. These features, along with the Long Park Reservoir, highlight how this wilderness has been utilized for both transit and resource control within Daggett Co and Sweetwater Co.
