1965 Map of Jensen

About this map

Jensen stands as the primary hub of this 1960s landscape, situated where the Green River flows through the Uintah Basin near the base of the majestic The Rim Rock. The river dominates the western portion of the terrain, feeding into Stewart Lake and the associated Stewart Lake Waterfowl Management Area. This confluence of water and dry land created a vital pocket for early settlement and habitat preservation in a region otherwise defined by complex drainage systems like Ashley Creek, Kane Hollow, and Spring Hollow. Beyond the riparian corridor, the map details a landscape of industrial and natural transitions, from isolated Oil Wells and a Gravel Pit to the expansive Sage Bench. The presence of several Pipeline corridors and a network of Jeep Trails underscores the ongoing efforts to navigate and extract resources from the surrounding basins.
