1971 Map of Vernon NE

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Site of Rush Valley Pony Express Station anchors this high-desert landscape in Tooele County, marking a historic transit corridor through the Rush Valley. This 1971 survey illustrates the spatial relationship between old pioneer trails and mid-century industrial infrastructure, notably the Union Pacific rail line cutting through the southwestern corner near the Vernon Hills. The map captures an arid environment defined by seasonal water sources like Sabie Creek and Boulter Creek, alongside land-use indicators such as Corrals, a Borrow Pit, and an isolated Prospect. A notable northern Depression and several wells suggest the ongoing challenges of water management in this interior basin during the early 1970s.
