1972 Map of Pinto

About this map

Pinto stands as the primary settlement in this 1970s landscape, situated along the banks of Pinto Creek where the waterway exits the high terrain of the Dixie National Forest. The map documents a rugged area defined by steep drainages like Wheat Grass Canyon and the prominent heights of Cove Mountain. This region, crossing the Iron and Washington County line, reveals a history of early pioneer activity and resource extraction, evidenced by the Hamblin Cem and numerous named water sources such as Hyatt Spring and Lone Spring.
