1968 Map of Dairy Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Dairy Ridge forms the high-elevation backbone of this landscape at the intersection of the Cache National Forest and Wasatch National Forest. The 1968 field survey reveals a terrain defined by high peaks and an intricate network of named water sources essential for forest management and local ranching. Notable summits like Eccles Peak and Baldy Peak rise above a series of prominent formations including Wasatch Ridge and Strawberry Ridge. Evidence of mid-century infrastructure is found at the Monte Cristo Guard Sta and the nearby Monte Cristo Campground, indicating the area's role in forest administration and recreation. The mapping of numerous springs, such as Neponset Spring and Davenport Spring, alongside the Dairy Ridge Reservoir, highlights the critical importance of water management in these high Utah highlands. Traces of historical activity appear in names like Sawmill Canyon and a localized Gravel Pit, while the Prospect Road suggests early exploration through the hollows.
