1965 Map of Woods Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Gunnison Valley dominates the central landscape of this mid-1960s survey, marking a significant transition between the Manti-La Sal National Forest and Fishlake National Forest. The map captures a high-elevation backcountry characterized by a complex network of ridgelines and alpine waters, including the namesake Woods Lake and the Three Lakes cluster. Human presence is sparse and focused on seasonal use, evidenced by locations like Pinchot Campground, Cowboy Camp, and Whitlock Cabin. The high-country infrastructure is defined by Skyline Drive, which follows the spine of the mountains, and numerous pack trails that navigate the steep terrain around Porcupine Ridge and Dead Horse Ridge. Notable peaks such as Marys Nipple and Mt Baldy serve as prominent landmarks for navigation in this roadless expanse where the boundary between Sanpete and Sevier counties crosses the rugged divide.
