1969 Map of Church Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Blacks Fork meanders through this high desert terrain at the border of Lincoln and Uinta Counties. This late 1960s survey documents a landscape defined by critical transport corridors, where the modern Union Pacific line runs parallel to the deeply rooted Emigrant Trail. Near the Church Buttes Siding, the topography rises toward the prominent Church Butte, a landmark that has long guided travelers across the basin. The inclusion of a Historical Monument along the old trail route underscores the area's significance as a passage for westward expansion. While the land is punctuated by several drainage systems, including Big Muddy Creek and Dry Muddy Creek, the modern industrial overlay is evident through the network of Pipelines traversing the region.
