About this map

Lockerby and Northdale anchor this high plateau landscape along the border of Utah and Colorado, surveyed just before the 1960s. The terrain is defined by deep incisions such as West Fork Canyon and Cottonwood Canyon which cut through the level tableland. Evidence of local settlement and infrastructure is present in the Valley View Cemetery and the inclusion of a Roadside Park along the primary roadway. The hydrological network is dominated by seasonal and perennial drainages including Peterson Wash, Cisco Creek, and Willow Creek. These watercourses, along with numerous small reservoirs scattered across the grid, suggest a landscape carefully managed for ranching or dryland farming. The map effectively captures the transit between the open flats and the dramatic drops into Canyon systems as the land falls away toward the east.
