About this map

Ashley National Forest dominates this section of the Uinta Mountains, defined by the significant hydraulic infrastructure of the Upper Stillwater Reservoir. This reservoir acts as a central hub for the drainage of high-elevation forks, including the W Fork Rock Creek and S Fork Rock Creek. The geography is shaped by high alpine basins and ridges, most notably the Dry Ridge and the E Slope Burnt Ridge, which create a complex network of canyons and gulches like Miners Gulch.

Wilderness navigation is traced through established routes such as the Rock Creek Trail and Stillwater Trail, which provide access to a dense cluster of high-country lakes. Water bodies like Rudolph Lake, Tworoose Lake, and Audry Lake sit tucked within basins beneath prominent peaks like Brown Duck Mtn and E Grandaddy Mtn. The names of the landscape, such as Log Hollow (Wedge Hollow) and Hell Hole, reflect the challenging terrain encountered by early foresters and surveyors.
