About this map

Tule Valley and the Barn Range dominate this 1960 field-checked survey of Millard County, Utah. The landscape is defined by its enclosed basins, including Blind Valley and the prominent peak of The Barn. Human activity is sparse and centered on livestock and transit through the high desert, evidenced by The Horse Pasture and the long stretch of the Garrison Black Rock Road.

A notable geographic focal point is the settlement at Ibex, located near Fossil Mtn and the Ibex Well. The map captures a complex system of drainage and geological features such as the Snake Wash, Red Wash, and the curious Lava Dam near the Black Hills. Towards the northeast, the Sevier Lake Reservoir marks a significant hydrologic feature in an otherwise arid environment, while various Jeep Trails snake through Cedar Canyon and Blackham Canyon to navigate the steep gaps of the range.
