2014 Map of Williams Peak

About this map

Fishlake National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in the Canyon Mountains along the border of Millard and Juab counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages and peaks, including the prominent Williams Peak and the protected Partridge Mountain Research Natural Area. Deeply etched canyons like John Williams Canyon, Rattlesnake Canyon, and Devil Canyon suggest a rugged geography that has historically challenged settlement and directed movement along the few established routes. To the southeast, the land descends into the Scipio Valley, where the transition from steep slopes to broader basins becomes apparent. While water is scarce, isolated sources such as Fishers Spring and Quarry Spring indicate the critical points that sustained livestock and wildlife in this high-country environment. The road network remains sparse, consisting primarily of tracks like Dry Creek Rd and Oak Creek Canyon Rd that provide access to the interior for forest management and recreation.
