About this map

Strawberry Reservoir dominates this high-altitude landscape, showing the complex water management infrastructure of the late 20th century. The map details the northern reaches of the reservoir, including the Soldier Creek Dam and its adjacent Soldier Creek Recreation Area, which serves as a hub for local infrastructure with its Work Center, Boat Ramps, and Sewage Disposal Ponds. The presence of the Tunnel and West Portal near Trout Creek Bay points to the significant engineering required to divert water through the mountains in this part of the Uinta National Forest.

Away from the water's edge, the terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes at Island Mountain and Square Top Mountain. Multiple bays and inlets like Sage Creek Bay and Salamander Bay create a jagged shoreline, while the surrounding land is partitioned between forest land and the State Wildlife Management Area. Resource extraction is noted at the Gravel Pits in the northwest, contrasting with the recreational focus of the Strawberry River Day Use Area to the south.
