1957 Map of Currant Creek Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Currant Creek Ranch and the isolated outposts of Hawks Nest and Greenhough Place anchor this 1957 mapping of the high desert terrain along the Wyoming-Utah border. The landscape is defined by its water management and grazing history, centered on the Currant Creek drainage and its network of springs and marshy basins like Jarvies Marsh and Krause Marsh. To the south, the massive rise of the Richards Mountains and West Mountain transitions into The Glades as the terrain falls toward the state line. Topographic details reveal a network of stock-rearing landmarks, from the natural fencing of Hogback Ridge and Flat Iron Ridge to the Sugarloaf Reservoir and family-named pastures like Janes Meadow. Jeep trails and canyon roads snake through the Sugarloaf Basin, documenting the era's land use before major modernization altered the region.
