2017 Map of Hancock Cove

About this map

Roosevelt anchors this landscape in the Duchesne River Valley, surrounded by a complex network of agricultural irrigation that defines the region's development. This survey reveals how the terrain is managed through an extensive system of waterways, including the Cedarview Canal, Sheehan Lateral, and Dry Gulch Creek. These channels traverse the distinct topographic steps of the Uinta Basin, notably across Harmston Bench and North Myton Bench. Settlement patterns are concentrated around historic hubs like Cedarview, where the Cedarview Cemetery serves as a genealogical marker, and Hancock Cove. The presence of the Roosevelt Municipal Airport and the transition into Big Sand Wash further illustrate the balance between modern infrastructure and the natural drainage systems that have supported local ranching and farming for generations.
