1972 Map of Thatcher Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Blue Spring Hills and the prominent peak of Thatcher Mountain dominate the western half of this Box Elder County landscape, giving way to the irrigated agricultural flats of the east. This early 1970s survey captures a transition from the high, arid terrain where Burnhope Spring and various jeep trails navigate the slopes, down to the orderly grid of the West Canal. Small rural settlements like Bothwell, Thatcher, and Penrose anchor the farming community, while the Salt Creek Waterfowl Management Area and Peterson Pond mark the lower elevations near the southern marshes. Traces of historical transport are evident in the Old Railroad Grade north of Rocket Road, reflecting the evolution of infrastructure in northern Utah. Genealogists and local historians can pinpoint significant local sites including Valleyview Cem and Penrose Cem.
