About this map

Strawberry Reservoir dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its western shores carved by high-elevation drainage and complex water engineering. Significant hydrological infrastructure is visible, including the Indian Creek Diversion Canal and the subterranean water transfer system marked by the Gaging Station West Portal and East Portal. These features illustrate the mid-century management of the Strawberry Valley watershed for irrigation and regional water needs.

The western terrain transitions into the high country of the Uinta National Forest, defined by the prominent Uinta Ridge and the legacy of the Old Indian Treaty Boundary. Settlement is limited to seasonal and administrative outposts such as Clarks Camp, Camp Strawberry, and the Bryants Fork Guard Station. Numerous seasonal drainages like Clyde Creek, Mud Creek, and Sixth Water Creek feed the basin, while Doe Knoll stands as a landmark above the creek-cut hollows.
