1965 Map of Pole Creek Cave

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Ashley National Forest and the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation meet in this 1960s survey, revealing a landscape defined by water management and high-altitude springs. The rugged canyon topography is traced by the Pole Creek Canal and Cedarview Canal, engineering efforts designed to divert flow from the Pole Creek and Uinta River. Named features like Pole Creek Cave and the Uintah Powerplant reflect the intersection of natural landmarks and utility infrastructure. Further south, the Uintah Canyon Youth Camp and Gaging Station sit along the river's edge, while dozens of family-named or descriptively titled water sources, such as Mugwump Spring and Lightning Killed Bull Spring, dot the timbered slopes. The boundary lines between national forest and reservation lands dictate the placement of stock-management features like Nephi Pond and the Ant Reservoirs.
