1985 Map of Firewater Canyon South

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation dominates this 1985 landscape, covering a high-elevation plateau defined by an intricate network of deep drainage systems. The terrain is marked by prominent ridges such as North Point, Firewater Point, and Fox Point that separate the various canyons. This sheet captures a remote section of eastern Utah where the county line between Carbon and Uintah counties cuts through the high country. Water sources are scarce but critical in this environment, evidenced by labels for Judith Spring and the drop at Chandler Falls. The naming conventions throughout the quadrangle, including Papoose Canyon and Wild Horse Canyon, reflect a landscape primarily used for seasonal grazing and tribal land management, with features like Chandler Pasture highlighting the agricultural use of the limited flat ground.
