About this map

Wasatch National Forest and Uinta National Forest meet in this 1970s survey of the high country surrounding the upper Provo River. The small settlement of Woodland occupies the river valley, situated near a local Cem and Quarry, while Samak sits to the north along Beaver Creek. The landscape is defined by the transition from valley floor to steep drainages like Red Pine Canyon and Failure Canyon, where numerous Prospects indicate the region's mineral history.

Infrastructure for resource management and recreation is evident throughout the terrain. A Fish Hatchery and Gaging Sta support the management of local waterways, while the Beaver Creek Campground and Oakcrest Camp reflect the area's role as a mountain retreat. The map traces a complex network of access points, from the Bench Creek Road to remote routes like the Camp Hollow Trail and various unnamed Pack Trails and Jeep Trails that penetrate the high timber.
