1967 Map of Billies Mtn.

About this map

Diamond Battle Historical Monument stands as a significant commemorative marker within the Uinta National Forest, noting a site of conflict in the canyon lands east of the Wasatch Front. This mid-century landscape is defined by the steep drainage systems of Diamond Fork and Spanish Fork Canyon, where the D & R G W railroad tracks follow the river's bend at the southern edge of the survey. The map details a transition from resource extraction and industrial activity, indicated by a Mine and Test Well near the northern boundary, to a mid-century recreational landscape featuring the Palmyra Campground and Diamond Campground. Local landmarks like Patrick Place and Wignal Spring offer specific points of interest for those tracing land use and family history in the area, while the network of pack trails, such as the Dibbles Pack Trail, suggests the persistent use of traditional mountain routes through Wanrhodes Canyon and Brimhall Canyon.
