1972 Map of Gunlock

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Gunlock lies along the banks of the Santa Clara River, serving as a focal point for this 1970s landscape where water management and ranching intersect. The expansion of infrastructure is evident in the presence of the Gunlock Reservoir and a nearby Power Plant, with an Aqueduct and Gaging Station marking the utility of the river. To the north, the terrain rises into the Dixie National Forest, dominated by Jackson Peak and dissected by numerous ephemeral washes like Tobin Wash and Miners Canyon Wash. This survey captures the remote character of the area, where water sources such as Manganese Spring and Grapevine Spring were critical landmarks for local travel. A simple Cemetery and a network of Pack Trails and Jeep Trails suggest a long-established rural life, while scattered prospects hint at the historical search for minerals in the surrounding heights.
