1968 Map of Archy Bench

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The White River meanders through this arid Uintah County landscape, carving deep channels through the elevated plateaus of Archy Bench and East Bench. Surveyed in the mid-1960s, the map highlights a rugged industrial footprint focused on energy extraction within the Bitter Creek Gas Field. The terrain is marked by an extensive network of infrastructure, including an Above Ground Pipeline, numerous Gas Wells, and an Oil Well. This industrial presence is supported by isolated Landing Strips and scattered Storage Bins, while several Prospects suggest ongoing mineral exploration. Beyond the industrial sites, the area is largely defined by natural drainages like Bitter Creek and Sand Wash, which are navigated only by occasional Jeep Trails, reflecting the remote and specialized nature of this desert region during the peak of its resource development.
