1968 Map of Red Wash SW

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The White River carves a winding path through the heart of the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation in this late 1960s survey. The landscape is defined by the heavy infrastructure of the energy industry, with the Chapita Wells Gas Field and Wonsits-Wonsits Valley Oil Field sprawling across the desert terrain. A complex network of an Aboveground Pipeline and various Jeep Trails crisscross the area, connecting numerous sites marked as Oil Wells, Gas Wells, and Drill Holes. Natural landmarks like the prominent Ship Rock and the riparian area of Chapita Grove provide contrast to the industrial development. The topographic detail captures the transition from the high Glen Bench down into the rugged drainage systems of Coyote Wash and Antelope Draw, illustrating how the mid-century petroleum boom transformed this corner of Uintah County.
