1981 Map of Tule Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Sevier Lake dominates the southeastern horizon of this Millard County landscape, marking a terminal point in the arid Great Basin topography. To the west, the House Range and Swasey Mountain form a massive limestone backbone between the Whirlwind Valley and the central Tule Valley. The map documents a sparsely settled frontier, where the small outposts of Gandy and Eskdale sit near the border of the Snake Valley. The land's character is defined by its water sources, from the isolated Tule Spring to the Confusion Hills Reservoir, which supported ranching and transit through the Confusion Range. In the House Range, the Wheeler Amphitheater Mines suggest the area's mineral interest, while the extensive system of knolls, ridges, and deserts like the Ferguson Desert illustrates the complex, basin-and-range geography before modern developments altered these remote corridors.
