1970 Map of Cedar Camp Canyon

About this map

Winter Ridge dominates this 1970s landscape along the high plateau dividing Uintah and Grand Counties. The map documents an era of resource extraction and ranching, evidenced by the Gas Field and scattered infrastructure such as a Gas Well and several Landing Strips tucked into the high-elevation flats. The Tomlinson Ranch stands as a lonely outpost near the head of Meadow Canyon, relying on the intricate system of natural water sources like Shale Spring and Cedar Camp Spring that punctuate the deep drainages. The topography is defined by sharp elevation changes between Rock Spring Mesa and the branching canyons of Willow Creek, where a network of Jeep Trails provides the only access through the winding corridors of Cedar Camp Ridge.
