1993 Map of Indian Peaks

About this map

The Pony Express and Overland Stage Route cuts a historical corridor across this landscape, tracing the northern edge of the Simpson Mountains and the arid reaches of Skull Valley. This 1993 revision, based on surveys dating back to 1953, details a high-desert environment where water sources like Winter Springs and Tom's Spring were vital for both historic travelers and the livestock at James Ranch. The terrain transitions from the dramatic rises of Davis Mountain and the Indian Peaks into the timbered drainage of the Wasatch National Forest. A network of intermittent drainages, including Government Creek and its canyon systems like Log Canyon, illustrates the complex hydrology of the Great Basin, where seasonal flows define the viability of ranching and transit.
