About this map

Fishlake National Forest encompasses the majority of this high-elevation terrain, dominated by the Tushar Mountains and the prominent Shelly Baldy Peak. The landscape is a network of named flats, meadows, and ridges, such as Big John Flat, Britts Meadows, and Grizzly Ridges. Water resources are central to the geography here, with the Beaver River and its various forks flowing through the southern reaches, alongside several high-country reservoirs including Three Creeks Reservoir and Little Reservoir.

Evidence of local recreation and land use appears at Harmony Park and the aptly named Sawmill Fork. The map also captures several family-named or descriptive landmarks like Cus Cache, Lousy Jim Cr, and Tungsten Hollow, reflecting the area's history of prospecting and small-scale habitation. The boundary between Beaver Co and Piute Co runs through the southeast, marking the administrative divide in this remote part of Utah.
