1971 Map of Warm Spring Hills

About this map

The Warm Spring Hills dominate the northern landscape of this Box Elder County survey, revealing a network of springs and drainages that supported remote ranching operations in the early 1970s. The Muddy Ranch sits near the confluence of several seasonal watercourses, including Muddy Creek, Birch Cr, and Little Birch Cr. This terrain is defined by its water sources, with isolated points like Rhus Spring and Seep Spring providing essential resources in an arid environment. A network of Jeep Trails provides the primary means of navigation through the hills and across the flats toward a lone Corral in the southern reaches. The map captures the infrastructure of high-desert land use, where scattered Gravel Pits and cattle management sites are the primary markers of human activity.
