1965 Map of Huntington Reservoir

About this map

Manti-La Sal National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Sanpete and Emery counties, where mid-1960s infrastructure supports water management and power generation. The Huntington Reservoir and smaller Rolfson Reservoir are central to the region's hydro-logical network, connected by a system of rugged terrain features like Towhead and Pritchett Flat. The presence of the Upper Mt Pleasant Powerplant and Lower Mt Pleasant Powerplant along Pleasant Creek illustrates the integration of natural water sources into the local utility grid. Transportation and utility corridors are established via Skyline Drive and various jeep trails, while an Aqueduct and multiple pipelines trace the movement of resources across the forest's deep canyons, such as Bear Canyon and Jordan Canyon. Research into this era reveals a landscape balancing conservation with active industrial use, evidenced by scattered gas wells and the Lake Guard Station.
