About this map

Woodland and Samak anchor this high-elevation landscape where the Provo River corridor serves as the primary artery for settlement and movement. This 1970s record illustrates the intersection of local industry and mountain recreation, featuring a Quarry and various mineral Prospects alongside established sites like the Fish Hatchery and Gaging Sta. The area is defined by its position between the Wasatch National Forest and Uinta National Forest, where the Summit Co Wasatch Co boundary line crosses the Provo River.

Extensive networks of Jeep Trails and Pack Trails weave through drainage systems such as Taylor Fork, Svedes Canyon, and Herd Hollow. The map provides specific locations for seasonal recreation, including Shingle Creek Campground and Beaver Creek Campground. Topographical features like Potters Knoll and the steep descent of Failure Canyon characterize the transition from the river basin into the surrounding mountain peaks.
