About this map

The southeastern outskirts of Evanston anchor this modern survey of Uinta County, where residential development meets a landscape of named draws and hollows. The Bear River meanders through the eastern portion of the quadrangle, accompanied by the City Ditch and a network of local roads such as Castlehale Way and Spaulding Ln. The terrain is deeply inscribed with historical family and descriptive names, including Glasscock Hollow, Bernard Hollow, and Stagecoach Hollow, suggesting the early routes and homesteading patterns of this Wyoming region.

Water management and natural drainage define the area south of town, marked by Yellow Creek and the long course of Coyote Cr. From the residential clusters near Hathaway Ave to the more open ranch lands near Millis, the map documents the transition from the city's edge to the high-desert ridges. Features like Sandy Ridge and Knight Hollow provide specific points of reference for local historians or genealogists tracing family land outside the main Evanston townsite.
