1970 Map of Preacher Canyon

About this map

The Diamond Ridge Gas Field and its associated pipeline infrastructure mark the industrial footprint on this high-desert landscape in northeastern Grand County. At the time of this 1970 field check, the area was defined by its complex drainage network, where the high elevation of Diamond Ridge gives way to deep incisions like Preacher Canyon and Hay Canyon. A series of drill holes and gas wells are scattered across the plateau, reached by a network of jeep trails and a pack trail that emphasize the remoteness of the terrain.
