1987 Map of Haystack Buttes South

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Flaming Gorge Reservoir dominates this landscape, filling the deep canyons of the Green River as it passes through the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area. The map records a dramatic meeting of water and desert in the late 1980s, where the high-water line of the reservoir contrasts with the arid breaks of The Glades and the prominent Haystack Buttes to the north. Evidence of resource management and industrial infrastructure appears throughout the terrain, from a isolated Pumping Station near the river to a documented Drill Hole in the western uplands. Seasonal drainage patterns are clearly marked by features such as Anuit Wash, Twin Buttes Draw, and Wildhorse Draw, providing a precise look at the hydrology and land use of Sweetwater County before the close of the century.
