1998 Map of Shearing Corral

About this map

Cache National Forest encompasses much of this high-elevation landscape where the borders of Rich, Morgan, and Summit Counties converge. This late 20th-century survey illustrates a terrain defined by seasonal water management and pastoral infrastructure, notably the Shearing Corral and a series of high-country reservoirs including Shearing Reservoir and Suttons Reservoir. The network of Pipelines and a Pumping Station underscore the industrial efforts to manage water resources across Lake Ridge and down through Echo Canyon. Genealogists and historians will find interest in family-named landmarks like Heiners Spring and Lewis Canyon, as well as the specialized geography of Tristram Creek and Ball and Moore Reservoir. The map provides a clear look at the ranching legacy of the region, from Shearing to the geological prominence of Red Rock.
