1962 Map of Lynndyl

About this map

Lynndyl and Leamington serve as the primary hubs of activity in this 1962 landscape, where the Union Pacific railroad tracks provide a vital artery through the desert terrain. The area is defined by the contrast between the shifting Sand Dunes and Sand Hills to the north and the irrigation-dependent agriculture along the Sevier River to the south. Local water management is visible through the engineering of the Utah Central Canal and various unnamed ditches that supported the small settlements of Mack and Leamington.
