1923 Map of Castle Dale

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Castle Dale and the surrounding Emery County settlements are captured during a period of agricultural and mining development in the early 1920s. The map illustrates a landscape of high plateaus and alluvial benches, where the water from Cottonwood Creek and Ferron Creek sustained small communities and outlying operations like the Fox Ranch and Peterson Ranch. To the west, the steep escarpments of Horn Mountain and South Horn Mountain rise into the Manti National Forest, hiding early industrial attempts such as the Axel Anderson Mine and the Killpack Mine. This 1923 survey reveals the importance of water management in this arid region, showing the early network of ditches and the Ferron Mill that served the local economy before modern infrastructure transformed the Castle Valley region.
