1966 Map of Bates Knolls

About this map

Seep Ridge dominates this high-plateau landscape in Uintah County, showing a remote region defined by ephemeral water management and early energy infrastructure. In the mid-1960s, the terrain was marked by a series of isolated catchments including Sunday School Reservoir, McCoy Reservoir No 1, and Jims Reservoir, which provided essential water in an arid environment. The presence of Hatchs Camp and a Landing Strip near the center of the sheet suggests a landscape utilized for seasonal ranching or resource exploration, far from established towns.
