1996 Map of Rasmussen Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

The High Uintas Wilderness dominates the western portion of this 1996 update, featuring a landscape defined by glacial activity and high-altitude hydrology. The map illustrates a concentration of alpine basins, including the namesake Rasmussen Lakes and the tiered system of Upper Rock Lake, Middle Rock Lake, and Lower Rock Lake. Within the Ashley National Forest, the terrain drops toward the Whiterocks River and its forks, where the West Fork Whiterocks Bridge provides a rare point of engineered infrastructure in an otherwise primitive area. Significant landmarks for navigation and land management include Pole Mountain and the Vernal Roosevelt Ranger District Boundary. For the researcher, the map preserves the specific locations of high-country springs and meadows such as Bennion Park and Big Bend Hollow Spring, which have long served as vital landmarks for seasonal high-country travel and forest management.
