1965 Map of Mc Ginnis Butte

About this map

McGinnis Butte stands as the primary landmark in this remote section of Garfield County, overlooking a landscape defined by seasonal drainages and essential water sources. The map, based on 1964 aerial photography, reveals the vital role of natural springs in this arid region, marking both Peterson Spring and Geyser Spring. These water points, along with the winding course of Big Dry Creek and McGinnis Creek, likely served as critical infrastructure for the scattered ranching operations indicated by the network of fence lines.
