1965 Map of Three Forks

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Three Forks emerges as the hydrographic center of this Uinta County landscape, where the Middle Fork, North Fork, and South Fork converge. The terrain is defined by a series of named drainages and topographic landmarks including Acock Canyon, Christensen Hollow, and the winding Whitney Canyon. Evidence of mid-century land use is visible through the presence of various Prospects and a Claypit, indicating small-scale mineral exploration or extraction. Water sources are meticulously documented, from the high-elevation School Section Spring and Section 2 Spring to the lower Whitney Springs Creek. A prominent Jeep Trail traverses the higher ridges between Salt Creek and the canyon systems, reflecting the necessity of rugged transit in this high-altitude Wyoming territory. This 1965 field-checked survey provides a clear view of the complex drainage network and early industrial footprints before more modern development reached this part of the county.
