1968 Map of Shearing Corral

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Union Pacific rail lines dominate the southeastern corridor of this high-altitude landscape, following the deep cut of Echo Canyon through the borderlands of Rich, Morgan, and Summit Counties. This 1968 survey (photorevised in 1986) illustrates a rugged interior defined by a network of ranching infrastructure and water management within the Wasatch-Cache National Forest. Named landmarks like Shearing Corral Canyon and the Shearing Corral Reservoir point to the area's historic sheep-herding industry. The map reveals the intricate drainage systems of Crane Creek and Suttons Creek, punctuated by industrial additions such as pipelines and a Pumping Sta. Narrow passages like Tunnel Hollow and Slaughterhouse Canyon branching off the main canyon reveal the challenging topography that guided early transportation routes through the northern Utah mountains.
