About this map

The Monument Butte Oil Field anchors this mid-century survey of Duchesne County, Utah, where industrial development meets the complex history of land ownership. A prominent Old Indian Treaty Boundary cuts across the northern landscape, separating the rugged upland terrain from the irrigation-dependent valleys. Water management is a central theme here, evidenced by the Upper Pleasant Valley Canal and Lower Pleasant Valley Canal, which snake through the northern sections to support local agriculture. The topography is defined by the broad Pariette Bench and sharp relief of Castle Peak. To the south, family-named landmarks like Snyder Res and Snyder Spring suggest ranching activity, while a network of jeep trails and scattered drill holes trace the footprint of early petroleum exploration in this arid reach of the Uinta Basin.
