About this map

Ashley National Forest dominates this early 1960s survey, showing a landscape defined by high-elevation peaks and deep canyons. The central mass of Tabby Mountain rises above several distinctive drainages, including Red Creek and Tabby Creek, which feed into the Red Creek Reservoir. A significant historical marker, the Old Indian Treaty Boundary, cuts across the terrain, reflecting the complicated 19th-century land divisions of the Uinta Basin.

Resource management and navigation are evident through named water sources like Whiskey Spring, Santaquin Spring, and Beer Spring, which provided essential stops in the arid highlands. The map also traces various Jeep Tr routes and trails that connect remote landmarks such as Grey Wolf Mountain and the McDonald Basin. These details offer a clear record of the area's infrastructure and natural hydrology before modern developments altered the wilderness character of the western Duchesne region.
