1966 Map of Flaming Gorge

About this map

Flaming Gorge Reservoir dominates this landscape along the Wyoming and Utah border, marking a period of significant hydrological and recreational development in the mid-1960s. The impounded Green River winds through dramatic geological formations like Horseshoe Canyon and the Red Canyon, while the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area and Ashley National Forest provide organized infrastructure for the era's growing outdoor tourism. Early residential and utility footprints appear at Lucerne Valley Development and Antelope Flat Development.
