2017 Map of Roosevelt

About this map

Roosevelt and the neighboring community of Ballard anchor this portion of the Uintah Basin, where the landscape is defined by an intricate network of irrigation systems and expansive plateaus. The map documents the vital water infrastructure necessary for this arid region, including the Blackhawk Canal, State Road Lateral, and the Sinka Lateral. These waterways feed the agricultural lands surrounding distinctive terrain features like Nephi Bench and Blackhawk Bench. Educational and community hubs are central to the local geography, notably the Uintah Basin Applied Technology Coll and Roosevelt Memorial Park. To the east, the topography transitions toward Bottle Hollow and the W Channel Uinta River, while local storage is provided by the Montes Cr Reservoir and Lynn Haslem Reservoir. The survey reveals a structured grid of rural roads and laterals that have shaped development across Duchesne Co and Uintah Co.
