About this map

Muddy River winds through the southern reaches of this 1950s terrain study in Emery County, Utah. The landscape is defined by the significant elevations of Little Horse Mesa and Horse Mesa, which dominate the central and western portions of the quadrangle. This preliminary edition, based on 1951 aerial photography, provides a detailed look at the drainage patterns of the high desert before further development. Small water features like Little Horse Creek and a localized Seep suggest the scarce but vital water sources that shaped land use in this arid region. The map’s focus on topography and drainage reflects a period of intensive geological surveying by the Department of the Interior to document the more isolated stretches of the American West.
