1988 Map of Old Woman Wash

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The San Rafael Reef dominates this part of Emery County, Utah, where the sharp upturn of sandstone creates a dramatic geological boundary against the San Rafael Desert. This 1980s provisional survey shows a landscape defined by its hydrology and livestock history rather than permanent settlements. Seasonal water sources like Morrison Tanks, Farnsworth Tanks, and Swazy Seep provided critical anchor points in an arid environment. The map details a network of 4WD tracks that follow the natural contours of drainage systems such as Old Woman Wash and Temple Wash. Evidence of small-scale mineral exploration is noted by Prospects in the western hills, while the presence of a Corral near Temple Spring and Lost Spring points to the continued importance of open-range ranching in this remote section of the San Rafael Swell.
