2017 Map of Rays Valley

About this map

The Uinta National Forest dominates this section of the Wasatch Range, where a series of numeric ridges and creeks define the drainage patterns of the high country. Beginning with First Water Ridge in the southeast and ascending through to Fifth Water Ridge in the north, the landscape is carved by seasonal tributaries like Third Water Creek and Sixth Water Cr. At Three Forks, the confluence of Cottonwood Canyon and Diamond Fork provides a focal point for the local topography, which rises toward peaks such as Red Mtn and Teat Mtn. The map highlights a network of remote access routes, including Rays Valley Rd and Sheep Creek Rd, illustrating the forest management and recreation infrastructure within Rays Valley. Natural springs like First Water Spring and Mogbeck Spring underscore the hydrological importance of this montane environment.
