1964 Map of East Evacuation Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Oil Spring Mountain dominates the northeast corner of this high-plateau landscape along the border of Rio Blanco and Garfield counties. The terrain is defined by a complex network of drainage systems, most notably West Evacuation Creek and East Evacuation Creek, which carve deep passages through the upland. Land use during the mid-1960s is reflected in several industrial and agricultural markers, including scattered Drill Holes and a Corral positioned near the headwaters of Missouri Creek. Evidence of earlier activity is noted with unnamed Ruins located along the southern reaches of West Evacuation Creek. The map documents a primitive transportation network consisting primarily of a Jeep Trail that follows the ridge lines between West End Canyon and Timber Canyon, illustrating the era's reliance on rugged, unimproved roads for accessing these remote petroleum and grazing lands.
