1991 Map of Murphy Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Bear River winds along the border of Utah and Wyoming, anchoring a landscape defined by high ridges and irrigation engineering. On the eastern edge, the settlement of Almy is situated near the Almy Cem, providing a focal point for genealogical research in this borderland. The topography is dominated by the massive Murphy Ridge, which is flanked by numerous drainage basins including Stacey Hollow, Bartlett Hollow, and Thomas Canyon. This 1991 revision, based on earlier mid-century aerial photography, shows the significant role of water management in the region through features like the Chapman Canal, Neponset Reservoir, and Crane Reservoir. Transportation and utility infrastructure are also evident, from the City-County Airport (Burns Field) near the southern boundary to the complex network of 4WD trails and pipelines that service remote Oil Wells and ranching Corrals scattered across the high desert terrain.
