About this map

Sanpete Valley provides the topographic focus for this early 1980s survey, where the northwestern corner of the Fountain Green settlement marks the edge of the high mountain terrain. The landscape is dominated by the Uinta National Forest, which covers the western ridges and canyons. The map documents a complex network of water sources vital to the region, including Big Springs, Bradley Springs, and Maple Spring, alongside drainages such as Salt Creek and Hop Creek.

Canyon geography is remarkably detailed, tracing features like Meetinghouse Canyon and North Canyon as they descend from the Rocky Ridge. This era shows a landscape managed for both resources and transit, evidenced by the Gravel Pit near the valley floor and named routes like Serviceberry Hollow. The boundary between Juab and Sanpete counties bisects the rugged heights of the northeast, illustrating the political division of these mountain ranges.
