1961 Map of Scott Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Scott Canyon and Skunk Canyon dominate this high-desert landscape in Sweetwater County, where the topography is defined by the steep-walled drainages of the Green River basin. The area's mid-century utility infrastructure is visible through a prominent Pipeline that cuts across the northern ridges and a small electrical Substa near the northern boundary. Centered on the water source at Scott Spring, the map illustrates a transition from the original 1961 field survey to late-1970s updates. These revisions, shown in purple, reveal shifts in unimproved roads and minor land alterations that occurred between the initial mapping and the 1980 photorevision. The scarcity of permanent structures reflects the isolated character of this region, focusing instead on the intersection of Township and Range lines such as T. 20 N. T. 19 N. and R. 107 W. R. 106 W. that govern land management in the Wyoming backcountry.
