1960 Map of Larsen Knoll

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Larsen Ranch serves as a lone human waypoint in this high-desert landscape of Sweetwater County, documented during the early 1960s. The terrain is defined by a series of distinct elevations, notably Larsen Knoll, Stratton Knoll, and Johnson Knoll, which overlook a complex hydrology of seasonal and permanent basins. Significant water features like Mud Springs Lake and the Chain Lakes system are surrounded by expansive alkali or mud surfaces, including Mud Springs Flats and Chain Lakes Flat. A segment of the Riner Cutoff Road and a nearby Pipeline indicate the persistent utility of this corridor for regional transit and resource management. This survey provides a precise record of the land before significant modern development, capturing the essential cattle ranching and watering infrastructure of the era through various Corrals and a remote Well.
