1961 Map of Green River

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Green River sits at a dramatic bend in the Green River, framed by the striking geological formations of White Mountain. This 1961 topography reveals the town's identity as a critical transportation hub, where the Union Pacific railroad and the Overland Trail intersect with the rugged high-desert landscape. Local landmarks such as Tollgate Rock and The Palisades dominate the skyline above the settlement. The map highlights mid-century urban development, including Lincoln High Sch and Washington Sch, alongside historical markers and the Riverview Cem. South of the town's core, Island Park and the Waterworks occupy the riverfront, while the confluence with Bitter Creek and the presence of numerous pipelines signal the region's evolving infrastructure and resource management near the turn of the 1960s.
