About this place
The Wah Wah Mountains are a narrow, flat-topped range with steep, rugged sides.
Bald eagles, peregrine falcons and golden eagles all hunt here.
The ferruginous hawk, the long-billed curlew, the burrowing owl and the kit fox may be here too. All four are sensitive species.
Three sensitive plants may grow here as well: Cryptantha compacta, Eriogonum ammophilum and Sphaeralcea caespitosa.
Bristlecone pine covers about 190 acres of the higher ground. It is rare around here, and the trees in this area are exceptionally large, some of them reaching 50 feet or more.
Bristlecone pines are among the oldest living things on earth.

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.
