1959 Map of Cowboy Pass

About this map

Cowboy Pass and the rugged basins of the Conger Range define this high-desert landscape in central Utah as it appeared during the late 1950s. The topography is dominated by dramatic ridges like Plympton Ridge and Chevron Ridge, which frame distinctive geological features such as the Big Horseshoe and Little Horseshoe. This area, primarily used for grazing and transit, relies on sparse water sources such as Willow Spring, Skunk Spr, and Tule Spring. The presence of the Confusion Hills Res suggests attempts at water management in a region otherwise characterized by vast dry valleys like Tule Valley. Local navigation is marked by Indian Pass and the Tule Spring Road, which provide the primary means of crossing the varied terrain between the Disappointment Hills and Rattlesnake Bench.
