1953 Map of Ninemile Knoll

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Ninemile Knoll serves as a central landmark in this arid basin where water management defines the landscape of the late 1970s. The survey reveals a complex network of resource extraction and water diversion, from the Irrigation Canal and various ditches to several Abandoned Wells and a Gravel Pit. The southern portion of the map transitions into the high terrain of Black Canyon, marking the boundary between Beaver Co and Iron Co. This area is characterized by seasonal or intermittent water features like Cactus Pond, Mound Pond, The Sink, and Dry Willow Spr, highlighting the importance of every localized spring and catchment for ranching or government use, as evidenced by the presence of a Windmill and Government Well.
