1964 Map of Barker Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

High-altitude water management and livestock grazing define this portion of the Dixie National Forest in the mid-1960s. The landscape is dominated by the Aquarius Mountains and the extensive Griffin Top plateau, where a complex network of reservoirs and springs supports the local ecology and ranching operations. Significant water features include Barker Reservoir, Lower Barker Res, and the Joe Lay Reservoir, alongside smaller bodies like Velvet Lake and Flat Lake. The presence of White Ranch and named locations such as Holbys Bottom and Whites Cove points to the area's history of seasonal grazing. Transport across this terrain was primarily handled by a network of Pack Trails and Jeep Trails, linking remote points like The Gap and Dougherty Basin to the drainages of North Creek and Antimony Creek.
