1955 Map of Coyote Springs

About this map

The Pony Express Route traces the historic path through the desert landscape of Tooele and Juab counties as it appeared in the mid-1950s. This survey records the critical water infrastructure required for survival and transit in the arid Great Basin, notably Simpson Springs, Coyote Springs, and Sixmile Springs at the foot of the Simpson Mountains. The map reveals a land defined by dry washes and geological oddities, including the prominent Old River Bed that cuts through the center of the quadrangle and the uniquely named Slow Elk Hills to the southwest. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by isolated outposts and utility features like Government Well No 36, Warehouse Rock, and Grain Tanks. The rugged terrain is further detailed through a network of canyons such as Death Canyon and Indian Canyon, illustrating the challenging topography encountered by early western travelers.
