You Are Here - Miller Lake - Aquarius Plateau - Wayne County, UT, USA - 'You Are Here' Maps on Waymarking.com

This appears to be a hand-painted U.S. Forest Service map of a section of the Aquarius Plateau, near the border of Wayne County and Garfield County in south-central Utah. The map points out a number of high-mountain lakes, from this point south, the closest being Miller Lake.

"What sets this Knoll apart is the fact that it is the highest point in Wayne County and sits as the crown jewel of the Aquarius Plateau which rises 6000 feet above the colorful canyon country of Capitol Reef National Park and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. The extensive highlands of this plateau include rich forests of aspen, spruce, and fir as well as subalpine grasslands and scattered wet meadows. The plateau's northeastern corner, known as Boulder Top or Boulder Mountain, is a glaciated tableland above 11,000 feet dotted with numerous lakes.

The Aquarius Plateau is a region within Garfield and Wayne counties in south-central Utah. The plateau, an uplift on the much larger Colorado Plateau, is the highest in North America. It is over 900 square miles (2330 km²) of mostly forested highland, much of which is part of Dixie National Forest." (visit link)
