1968 Map of Murphy Ridge

About this map

Murphy Ridge dominates this high-elevation landscape along the border of Utah and Wyoming, where the headwaters of the Bear River meander through a complex network of irrigation and transport infrastructure. In the late 1960s, the settlement of Almy and the nearby Almy Cem sat adjacent to the Union Pacific rail line, representing the human footprint in a region defined by water management. The presence of the Chapman Canal, Morris Ditch, and the Neponset Reservoir reflects a history of engineering the high desert for agricultural and industrial use.
