1967 Map of Furner Ridge

About this map

East Tintic Mountains terrain dominates this 1960s survey of Juab County, revealing a landscape defined by seasonal water management and passage through the high desert. The central Furner Ridge separates Furner Valley from Dog Valley, with Furner Pass providing the primary route across the divide. The presence of Tidwell Spring and several man-made catchments like Hole in Rock Reservoir and Dog Valley Reservoir illustrates the critical role of water infrastructure in supporting ranching or local industry during this era. Evidence of small-scale extraction is visible in scattered Prospects and a Gravel Pit, while a network of unimproved roads and a Jeep Trail suggests a remote, working landscape. These features, combined with the prominence of Dog Valley Wash, offer a clear picture of the geographic challenges and land-use patterns in this part of Utah prior to late-century developments.
