About this map

Oil Well Dome stands as a prominent landmark in this desert landscape, where industrial infrastructure meets the intricate drainage systems of central Utah. This 2014 survey reveals a terrain defined by seasonal waterways and dramatic geological formations, with Huntington Cr and Cottonwood Cr carving paths toward the San Rafael River. The map highlights the intersection of natural features and human extraction, evidenced by the eponymous Oil Well Dome and the remote Oil Dome Rd winding through the hills.

Local history is preserved through family-named features like Johansen Pond and Merrials Pond, alongside distinct landforms such as Hadden Reef and Hadden Holes. The southern portion of the quadrangle is marked by Hambrick Bottom and Red Seep Wash, illustrating the complex hydrology near Ferron Cr. This record of the Emery County backcountry provides a detailed view of the region's topography and its relationship with water and industry in the early 21st century.
