2024 Map of Bluewater

About this map

Bluewater Creek and its various tributaries define the drainage patterns of this high-elevation landscape in Carbon County. The map details a network of water sources essential for life in this arid environment, including Big Bluewater Spring, Bachelder Spring, and Prewet Spring. Human presence is marked by agricultural infrastructure such as the Orchard Ditch and localized access via Bluewater Rd and S Two Bear Rd. For genealogists and local historians, the Teeples Ranch Cem provides a specific point of interest linked to the ranching families of the area. Significant geological formations like Bachelder Canyon and Two Bear Ridge dictate the flow of smaller seasonal streams like Rushwater Creek and Frosty Jack Creek, illustrating the intersection of natural topography and late-twentieth-century land use.
