1967 Map of Red Knob

About this map

The Wasatch National Forest and Ashley National Forest meet in this high-altitude wilderness along the Summit and Duchesne County line. The terrain is defined by dramatic peaks and glacial features, including The Cathedral, Mount Beulah, and the prominent Red Knob. The map traces a complex network of alpine hydrology, from the high waters of Norice Lake and Allsop Lake to the headwaters of the Bear River and West Fork Blacks Fork. An old Indian Treaty Bdy cuts across the southern portion of the sheet, providing a rare glimpse into the administrative history of these high basins. Movement through this landscape is limited to rugged pack trails and 4WD tracks, which connect landmarks like Deadman Pass and the grazing grounds at Buck Pasture.
