1962 Map of Blacktail Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation dominates this 1962 landscape, characterized by the winding course of the Duchesne River and the high elevations of the Uinta Basin. At the northern boundary, Rock Creek flows through deep canyons near The Nipple, while the central valley is defined by the distinct elevations of McAfee Ridge and Blacktail Mountain. The map records a network of primitive Jeep Trails and unnamed Trails that connect the high mesas and deep drainages like Seep Hollow and Sand Wash. A Gaging Station along the river bank and a pipeline following the watercourse reflect the era's focus on water management and resource infrastructure. This geography reveals the relationship between the river's path and the ridgelines of Blacktail Ridge, providing a detailed look at the land's transition from waterway to high desert plateau.
