About this map

The Uinta National Forest and Ashley National Forest converge in this late 1960s survey, revealing a landscape defined by sharp drainage divides and historic boundaries. The presence of the Old Indian Treaty Bdy cutting through the southeastern corner provides a direct link to the region's 19th-century land management history, while a network of pack trails and jeep trails suggests a wilderness utilized for grazing and transit rather than permanent settlement.

Major waterways including the Strawberry River and Willow Creek carve deep valleys between prominent features like Poison Ridge and Willow Creek Ridge. Small-scale evidence of human activity is scattered throughout, from a Gaging Station and Corral in the north to a Quarry in the west. This map serves as a vital record for researchers tracing the hydrology of the White River headwaters, including the Middle Fork White River and Right Fork, before modern development or forest management changes altered these high-elevation corridors.
