1961 Map of East Canyon Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Mormon Pioneers and Donner-Reed Party Route winds across this landscape, tracing the high ridges and hollows north of the East Canyon Reservoir. This survey captures the intersection of early Western migration history and mid-century water management. Along the historic trail, specific landmarks like the Site of Dixie Hollow Pony Express Sta and the Dixie Hollow Springs (Historic Campsite) mark critical stopping points for travelers. The terrain is defined by a dense network of named drainages including Bishops Canyon, Pollicks Canyon, and Thomas Hollow, all feeding toward the central reservoir and East Canyon Creek. Local history is anchored by specific family-named sites such as Grants Grave and Tom Porter Springs, while geological features like Redrock Peak and Avalanche Cave dominate the western heights.
