1966 Map of Dry Fork

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Ashley National Forest dominates this mid-century landscape in Uintah County, where the high-elevation ridges of Sawtooth Ridge and Pine Ridge give way to deep drainage basins. The settlement of Dry Fork sits along its namesake creek, serving as a hub for the scattered springs and water sources vital to this arid high-country terrain. A Cem near the fork and the prominent Old Military Reservation Boundary cutting across the southern half of the map provide clear evidence of early territorial land management and community life. Economic activity is etched into the earth through features like the Coal Mine Basin and various unnamed Mines in the south, while a Gaging Station on Dry Fork suggests the importance of water monitoring. The presence of the Red Cloud Loop and numerous Jeep Trails indicates the region's transition into a destination for recreation and resource management.
