1998 Map of Sharp Mountain

About this map

Sharp Mountain rises as the central landmark of this high-elevation terrain within the Cache National Forest, as it appeared in the late 1990s. The landscape is defined by its complex drainage network, where the headwaters of the Little Bear River Canyon and several forks of Middle Park Creek carve deep into the northern and southern slopes. Evidence of the region's industrial and agricultural activity is preserved through labels like the La Plata Mine and various Corrals, while a Gravel Pit indicates more modern resource extraction. A sparse network of 4wd tracks provides the primary means of traversal through the ridge systems, including Porcupine and La Plata. The map also captures the political geography of the area, clearly delineating the boundary between Cache and Weber Counties as it traverses the high peaks and Canyons of the Wasatch Range.
