1960 Map of Granite Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Granite Ranch sits at the base of the northern mountains in a landscape defined by dramatic basin-and-range topography. This 1960s-era documentation captures the arid West's reliance on scarce water sources, evidenced by the Hole-in-the-Wall Reservoir and Well 58. The terrain is characterized by a series of north-south running heights, including the Middle Range and the Confusion Range, which divide the broad expanses of Snake Valley and Tule Valley. Notable geological landmarks like Smelter Knolls and the intricate rock formations of the Honeycombs appear alongside primitive travel routes. The map provides a detailed view of the high-desert interior, where a network of jeep trails crosses through Sand Pass and skirts the Disappointment Hills, marking the boundaries between Juab and Millard Counties.
