About this place
This is an arid mountain range, full of geology.
Notch Peak has the third largest vertical drop in North America.
Drive up Amasa Valley to the top and you can see both the Tule Valley and the White Valley.
Deer hunting is popular. There is an old hermit’s cabin down in the canyon, and bristlecone pine up in the high country.
Marjum Pass runs between Howell Peak to the north and the Sawtooth Mountains to the south.
The trilobite beds at Antelope Springs are good rockhounding.
There is nothing built here. You can camp anywhere, and nothing is marked out.

Every distance on this page is the driving distance. A short distance can still take a long time. The road may be closed for the season, covered in snow, or washed out. Many of these roads are dirt. Plan your route before you leave home. Out here there is often no phone signal to look it up on the way.

- Milford, UT Directions
Milford is big enough that you’d normally expect fuel and somewhere to buy food. Nobody from here has been to check, so don’t count on it if you’re running low.

Add road notes for this site
The thing we cannot get from any government record is what the drive in is actually like. If you have done it, this is the most useful thing you can leave behind. We read everything before it appears, and we print a first name with it if you give one.
Thank you. A person will read it before it goes on the page.
