1978 Map of Soldier Summit

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Soldier Summit sits at a critical high point where the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad crosses the rugged transition between the Wasatch Plateau and the Uinta Basin. This late-1970s survey captures the settlement and its surrounding industrial infrastructure, including a Water Tank and several mineral claims such as USLM No 3 and USLM No 1. The landscape is a complex network of deep drainages like Averett Canyon and Right Fork Canyon that feed the headwaters of the White River. Historically significant lines intersect here, most notably the Old Indian Treaty Boundary and the division between Wasatch and Utah Counties. High ridges like Aagard Ridge and Wide Ridge dominate the southern portion of the map, while the Uinta National Forest covers the north, accessed via a system of primitive 4wd tracks and a traditional Pack Trail.
