1968 Map of Snake John Reef

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Snake John Reef anchors this high-desert landscape along the state boundary, where the geological uplift creates a distinctive natural barrier between Uintah County, Utah, and Moffat County, Colorado. Mapped in the late 1960s, the terrain is defined by dramatic ridges and deep erosional features like Buckwater Canyon and Miners Draw. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by isolated homesteads such as the Jensen Cabin and K Ranch, along with scattered infrastructure including a pipeline and several drill holes reflecting resource exploration.
