1966 Map of Agency Draw NE

About this map

The Agency Draw Oil Field defines the industrial footprint of this high desert landscape, where a Gas Well and early extraction infrastructure sit alongside traditional ranching features. This mid-1960s survey of Uintah County captures a transition as modern energy exploration began to overlay established backcountry routes. Willow Creek snakes through the center of the sheet, creating a deep canyon system that dictates the placement of landmarks like Santio Crossing and the Stevens Ranch. High points such as Chimney Rock and Blue Knoll provide navigational aids in a terrain marked by deep washes like Sunday School Canyon and Wood Canyon. Evidence of livestock management is visible at Brown Corral, while a Pipeline and various Jeep Trails suggest the increasing connectivity of the Seep Ridge area during this period.
