1935 Map of Sevier

About this map

Fishlake National Forest dominates this mid-1930s landscape, where a network of remote outposts and high-altitude features define the geography of south-central Utah. The map documents early forestry infrastructure with four distinct ranger stations, including the Pavant Ranger Sta and Shingle Creek Ranger Sta, positioned to manage the timber and watersheds. Central to the topography is Clear Creek, which carves through The Narrows alongside the State Highway, providing a critical passage through the high country. In the southeast corner, the Sevier River flows past the settlement of Pitsburg and the Parker Ranch, marking the transition from the mountainous interior to the river valley. The survey captures a moment when resource management and early motor travel began to leave a permanent mark on the varied terrain of Big Bench and Red Ridge.
