1961 Map of Peru

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Green River carves a deep path through the high desert of Sweetwater County, creating a corridor for transportation and settlement beneath the prominent Blue Rim. This 1961 field check, updated with 1970s aerial data, shows the concentration of activity along the Union Pacific railroad line where the small stations of Peru and Riview sit near the riverbanks. The map documents the localized growth of James Town and Riovista south of the tracks, contrasted against the older agricultural footprint of the Shaul Ranch and Gaensslen Ranch to the north.
