2020 Map of Red Hole

About this map

The Wyoming-Utah state line bisects this high-elevation terrain where Uinta County and Summit County meet. Much of the southern landscape is defined by the Wasatch National Forest, characterized by the complex drainage network of the Chalk Creek headwaters. Steep ridges like Porcupine Ridge rise above the deep valleys formed by Mill Fork and the Middle Fork East Fork Chalk Creek. The namesake Red Hole area sits near the confluence of these various forks, serving as a focal point for the region's topographical layout. Transport is limited to rugged corridors such as East Chalk Creek Road, which follows the watercourses through the timbered heights. This map captures the intersection of state boundaries and protected federal lands, illustrating the isolation and specialized hydrography of the high mountain backcountry.
