2017 Map of Sage Creek Basin

About this map

Ashley National Forest and the expansive Flaming Gorge Reservoir dominate this 2017 study of the high desert landscape. The terrain is defined by dramatic geological formations, most notably North Chimney Rock and South Chimney Rock, which overlook the reservoir and the steep walls of Firehole Canyon. The map reveals a land structured by drainage patterns and remote access, where Sage Cr winds through the Sage Creek Basin toward the main body of water. Sparse water sources like Greasewood Spring and topographic features such as Greasewood Draw indicate a landscape where geography dictates movement. A network of secondary routes, including the Flaming Gorge Rd and various county roads, provides the only infrastructure through these public lands.
