1971 Map of Rain Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Sand Dunes dominate this arid landscape along the border of Juab and Millard counties. The area is defined by its water management and grazing history, notably at the Nooning Ground (Site), a place-name reflecting the seasonal rhythms of livestock movement in the high desert. Man-made infrastructure is critical to the region's utility, including the CCC Reservoir, a legacy of Depression-era public works, and the North Sugarville Reservoir. The presence of Delta Well No 1 and various ephemeral water sources like Rain Lake underscore the vital importance of water rights and access in this part of Utah during the early 1970s. Industrial activity is limited but present, marked by a Borrow Pit in the southern portion of the quadrangle.
