Altonah serves as the primary settlement on this 1960s survey, situated where the high desert meets the irrigated agricultural lands of Duchesne County. The landscape is defined by the heavy management of water, with an intricate network of canals such as the U S Lake Fork Canal and the Bluebell Lateral distributing flow from the Lake Fork River and Yellowstone River. These waterways supported the local ranching economy just south of the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation boundary.
