1966 Map of Flat Rock Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Flat Rock Oil Field defines the industrial footprint of this mid-century landscape, positioned atop the expansive high ground of Flat Rock Mesa. Situated within the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation, the map records a network of petroleum infrastructure including an Oil Well and various drill holes scattered near Wilcox Canyon. These modern developments contrast with the traditional topography of the Book Cliffs region, where deep drainages like Hill Creek and Agency Draw carve through the plateau. Water resources are central to the area's utility, marked by Towave Reservoir and Flat Rock Spring. The presence of School Section Canyon and Mail Canyon suggests the historical pathways and administrative divisions established during the mid-1960s when this survey was conducted.
