1971 Map of Observation Knoll

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Pine Valley dominates this high-elevation landscape in southern Utah, where the drainages of Cottonwood Creek and Sheep Creek descend from the western slopes toward Sheep Creek Reservoir. This early 1970s survey illustrates a region defined by seasonal water management and grazing infrastructure, evidenced by the presence of a Water Tank and several corrals. The eastern portion of the sheet is anchored by Observation Knoll, a prominent landmark surrounded by a network of jeep trails and a small prospect that suggests minor mineral exploration. The boundary between Beaver Co and Iron Co cuts directly across the southern half of the map, intersecting Mountain Spring Wash. Remote transportation is limited to rugged tracks like Jockey Road, which navigates the alluvial fans and washes that feed into Mackleprang Reservoir.
