1957 Map of Eastland

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Eastland and Lockerby sit within a high-elevation landscape of deep canyons and prominent mesas along the border of Utah and Colorado in the late 1950s. The region is defined by complex drainage systems like Summit Canyon, Boulder Canyon, and Horsehead Canyon that cut through the terrain toward Piute Creek and Coal Bed Creek. A network of unpaved routes, including East Summit Road and West Summit Road, connects the rural settlements and local institutions such as East Summit School and Burn School. Evidence of local industry and infrastructure is visible through a prominent Pipeline and a mining Shaft, while community life is anchored by landmarks like Valley View Cemetery and Roadside Park. Grounded in work by the U.S. Geological Survey with cooperation from the Atomic Energy Commission, the map details a period of topographical survey using early 1950s aerial photography to document this sparsely populated agricultural and mining frontier.
