About this map

Lindon Oil Field dominates the northwest corner of this 1970s landscape in Washington County, marking a period of industrial energy development on the High Plains. The terrain is defined by a series of north-south ridges and draws, with drainage provided by the meandering path of Gordon Creek in the south. Unlike many mountain or coastal sheets, this area is characterized by its sparse settlement and the infrastructure of the petroleum industry, including numerous individual Oil Well sites and a prominent east-west Pipeline that cuts across the northern township line. This map provides a detailed view of the section lines and surveyors' grids that organized the Colorado plains during the mid-20th century, revealing how the land was partitioned for both resource extraction and cattle ranching.
