1972 Map of Price

About this map

The Price River carves a green corridor through the arid landscape of Carbon County, anchoring the regional hub of Price and the neighboring settlement of Carbonville. In the early 1970s, the town's development was defined by the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad and an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure, including the Carbon Canal. Educational and civic life is centered around the College of Eastern Utah, Notre Dame Sch, and the Price Reeves Sch. For genealogists, the map identifies several burial grounds, including the Whitmore Cem and Mead Cem. Beyond the city grid, the terrain gives way to features like Drunkards Wash and the prominent Pinnacle, while an Old Railroad Grade offers a look at earlier transportation routes through the desert floor.
