1969 Map of Sheeppen Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

North Eden Canyon and its southern counterpart define the drainage patterns of this high-altitude landscape in Rich County. The 1969 field survey reveals a system of water management critical for this arid terrain, centered on the Lower North Eden Res, Upper North Eden Res, and South Eden Res. These reservoirs, along with numerous named water sources like Shirley Spring and Cottonwood Spring, supported the seasonal needs of the region. The map highlights the intersection of natural features and early resource extraction, noted by the Gravel Pit near South Eden Canyon and several Storage Bins scattered across the flats. Rugged local landmarks such as Black Mountain and Lakeview rise above a network of unnamed trails and jeep roads, illustrating the area's use for ranching and passage between the Utah and Wyoming borderlands.
