About this map

Naples serves as the primary residential hub on this survey, situated at the intersection of a precise grid of local roads and the prominent Old Hwy 40. The landscape to the east and north shifts toward more varied terrain, where the Buckskin Hills and the expansive Sunshine Bench dominate the topography. Water management is a central theme of this arid region, evidenced by a series of engineered features including the Herman-Sadlier Reservoir and its associated Herman-Sadlier Dam, alongside the Burns Bench Reservoir and Bullwinkle Reservoir.

Drainage systems like Ashley Creek and Brush Creek carve through the landscape, supporting the agriculture and development of the Uintah Basin. Local leisure and land use are further represented by the Vernal Golf Course near Steinaker Draw. This map documents a period of modern growth and infrastructure just south of Vernal, showing how the community has organized itself around the natural draws and gulches of the High Desert.
