1965 Map of Myers Reservoir

About this map

Bear River winds through this corner of Uinta County, shaping the agricultural and topographic character of the region during the mid-1960s. The map centers on the Myers Reservoir and the diverse network of drainages that feed into the river valley, including Cottonwood Creek and Mill Creek. The landscape is defined by its series of named hollows and draws, such as Clifton Hollow and Harding Hollow, which suggest a terrain carved by seasonal water flow and livestock grazing patterns. High-elevation features like Cove Meadow and the numerous springs, including Randal Springs, indicate a reliance on natural water sources for the local ranching economy. Transportation is represented by the Chalk Creek Road and an industrial Pipeline that traverses the northern sections, reflecting the early infrastructure of this high-desert environment.
