1966 Map of Strawberry Reservoir NE

About this map

Strawberry Reservoir dominates the western edge of this High Uinta landscape, showing its mid-century shoreline and the critical The Narrows passage. The topography was mapped from 1963 aerial photography, with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation contributing underwater contours that reveal the submerged canyon floor. The rugged interior is defined by Windy Ridge and Square Top Mountain, where a network of Jeep Trails and Telephone Lines represent the era's infrastructure for water management and resource access. To the south, the Strawberry River meanders past Island Mountain and a Gaging Station, illustrating the hydrographic monitoring essential to this watershed. Notable landmarks like Chicken Spring, Stinking Springs, and Soldier Springs dot the drainages, serving as vital water points in an area carved by Coal Canyon and Badger Hollow.
