1967 Map of Lucin NW

About this map

The Old Emigrant (Jeep) Trail snakes across the high desert floor of Box Elder County, marking a historic corridor of western movement through this remote corner of Utah. Surveyed in the late 1960s, the landscape is defined by the ephemeral Grouse Creek and a network of Jeep Trails that connect scattered mining operations. Evidence of industrial and migratory history is visible in several Prospects, a Mine, and the small crossroads at Grouse Creek Junction. The southern edge of the sheet is anchored by the infrastructure of the Southern Pacific railroad, illustrating the region's continued role as a vital transportation artery. This map provides a detailed view of the terrain before modern developments, highlighting the intersection of 19th-century pioneer routes with 20th-century resource extraction and rail transport.
