About this map

Guild Hollow and the surrounding drainage basins of Byrne Creek define this Uinta County landscape during the late 1960s and 1970s. The terrain is deeply incised by family-named features such as Duncomb Hollow, Robinson Hollow, and Hinshaw Hollow, reflecting a history of local land use and seasonal water management. This period shows a notable transition in infrastructure, with the expansion of a 4 Lane highway cutting through the heart of the hollows and the presence of significant utility corridors marked by Pipelines.

Resource extraction and local utility needs are visible through the scattered Gravel Pits, a Mine, and a Radio Tower near Feltner. Numerous water sources, from the Roadside Spring to Crompton Spring, underscore the importance of hydrology in this high-elevation environment. The map also records recreational or communal spots like Picnic near Pleasant Valley, providing a record of mid-century local activity before later developments.
