1967 Map of Crandall Canyon

About this map

Rockport State Park and the Weber River anchor the southwest corner of this Summit County landscape, where the Rockport Lake Spillway marks a significant point of water management and recreation. The terrain rises sharply from the river valley toward the Elkhorn Divide, a high ridge that separates numerous drainages including Crandall Canyon, Pecks Canyon, and Cottonwood Canyon. High-altitude water features like Elkhorn Reservoir and the Sargent Lakes are tucked into the upper reaches of the canyons, accessible by several noted Jeep Trails. This map details a high-country environment defined by its watershed, from the prominent Big Piney Mountain to the southern Base Line boundary. Ranching and land management activity is evident through the placement of multiple corrals and a water tank near Maple Ridge.
