1957 Map of Red Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Oregon Trail cuts across the southeastern corner of this landscape, marking the historic path of westward expansion through the high plains of Fremont County. This 1950s survey captures a transition in land use, where traditional landmarks like Bain Spring and Jackson Spring provided critical water sources for travelers and livestock in an otherwise arid environment. The presence of an Oil Well north of Red Canyon signals the mid-century industrial interests developing in the region.
