1965 Map of Burnt Mill Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Ashley National Forest and the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation dominate this landscape, where the Yellowstone River cuts a deep path through the canyonlands of Duchesne County. This 1960s survey captures a developed backcountry infrastructure focused on water management and recreation, evidenced by a string of sites along the river including the Yellowstone Bridge Campground, the Yellowstone Guard Station, and a Powerhouse. The presence of Yellowstone Ranch and Crystal Ranch suggests a history of private enterprise and habitation within the protected forest boundaries. Resource management is highly visible through numerous reservoirs and springs, such as Timothy Creek Res and the Lower Burnt Mill Spring Reservoir. High-elevation landmarks like Flat Top Mtn and the steep walls of Hells Canyon frame the river valley, while a network of jeep trails and pack trails provides the primary means of movement through the high-desert terrain.
