About this map

The Green River carves a deep, winding path through this corner of Carbon and Uintah counties, forming the primary geographic anchor for the region. Along its course, a succession of river features including Wild Horse Rapids, Steer Ridge Rapids, and Log Cabin Rapids indicate the challenging water navigation through this canyon country. The eastern bank of the river falls within the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation, marked by the Desolation Boundary. Significant high-elevation features like Steer Ridge and Van Duesen Ridge rise above the waterway, while the remote Johnson Spring provides a rare water source in the higher terrain. This mid-1980s data highlights the isolation of the landscape, defined by named canyons such as Calf Canyon and Snap Canyon that drain toward the river.
