About this map

The Rockland Valley and the northern reaches of the Sublett Range define this high-altitude landscape in Oneida County. Centered on the settlement of Roy, the map documents a region where ranching and conservation intersect within the Curlew National Grassland. The terrain is characterized by a series of prominent peaks and ridges, including Quaking Asp Mtn and Buck Peak, which rise above the drainages of South-Fork Rock Creek and Rock Creek.

Remote mountain passes like Roy Summit provide transit between the valley floor and the surrounding high ground of the Deep Creek Mountains. Numerous spring sites, such as Lonigan Springs and Sagehen Springs, highlight the critical importance of water sources in this dry mountain environment. Local road networks like Benson Rd and Kress Rd trace the historical routes through the canyons and along the edges of the grassland, connecting isolated homesteads and grazing lands.
