McKinnon Junction serves as a lone point of reference in this arid expanse of Sweetwater County, documented during the late twentieth century. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling Ashley NF Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area, where the waters of the Flaming Gorge Reservoir meet a network of seasonal drainages. Long desert features like Halfway Hollow and Big Dry Creek carve through the high plains, illustrating the drainage patterns of this remote high-desert environment. The map details the modern infrastructure required to sustain the region, including a prominent Pipeline network, a Pumping Station, and a Communication Tower. Several Drill Hole locations are noted, indicating the ongoing interest in subsurface resources during this era. The presence of the West Auxiliary Meridian and other survey markers underscores the precision required to map this vast public land system.
