1957 Map of Eastland

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Eastland and the nearby agricultural outpost of Lockerby serve as focal points for this high-desert landscape on the border of Utah and Colorado. The map reveals a transition from the plateau's dry-farming fields to a complex network of canyons, including Montezuma Canyon and Piute Canyon, where topography dictated early settlement patterns. This 1950s survey was produced in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, hinting at the era's regional uranium prospecting interest, although the landscape here remains largely rural and dominated by ranching and local infrastructure. Genealogists will find several landmarks of community life, such as the East Summit School, Valley View Cemetery, and the Burn School Cem. Prominent terrain features like Piute Knoll and Ginger Hill provided essential orientation for residents navigating the mesa tops between deep incisions like Coal Bed Creek and Wildhorse Canyon.
