About this map

Walker Hollow Oil and Gas Field and the surrounding energy landscape dominate this 2014 survey of northeastern Utah. The topography is defined by the high, flat expanses of Deadman Bench and the prominent elevations of Squaw Ridge and Raven Ridge. Transportation in this arid region is anchored by the Old Bonanza Hwy, which cuts across the eastern sections, providing access to the Powder Springs Gas Field and the Coyote Basin Oil Field.

A singular point of local historical interest, Deadmans Grave, sits north of Deadman Bench, hinting at the solitary and often harsh conditions of the high desert. The drainage system, characterized by seasonal features such as Cow Wash, Kennedy Wash, and Coyote Wash, illustrates the erosive force that has shaped the basins. This map captures the industrial character of the Uintah County landscape during the modern energy boom.
