1971 Map of Lund

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Lund stands as a lonely outpost at the edge of the Escalante Desert, where the Union Pacific railroad line cuts a straight path across the arid basin. This 1971 survey captures the town surrounded by the vast Lund Flats, a landscape defined by its reliance on scarce water sources. The map documents numerous vital watering points, from the Lyman Well to the high-elevation Marsden Spring, which supported livestock and early travelers in this remote corner of Iron County. To the west, the topography rises sharply into the Wah Wah Mountains, a stark contrast to the desert floor. Here, a network of Jeep Trails and primitive roads like Valley Road link isolated sites such as the Sulphur Spring and a small Prospect to the north, reflecting the region's history of mineral exploration and ranching.
