2014 Map of Bluebell

About this map

Bluebell and Upalco anchor this High Uinta foothills landscape, where a sophisticated network of irrigation channels defines the high desert agriculture. The intricate water system, featuring the Bluebell Lateral, Purdy Canal, and several branches of the N Lateral Lake Fork Canal, demonstrates the region's reliance on managed water resources. These man-made waterways navigate the varied topography of Water Hollow and Gundy Hollow, eventually feeding into larger features like the Big Sand Wash Reservoir. To the south, the Lake Fork River cuts through the terrain near where the Red Cap Canal begins its course. Local history is grounded at the Bluebell Cem and recreation is centered at the Big Sand Lake Campground, illustrating a community deeply integrated with its hydraulic infrastructure and the natural breaks of Pine Ridge and Flat Top.
