1922 Map of Wasatch

About this map

Manti National Forest encompasses most of this 1922 survey, illustrating the high-elevation divide between Sanpete and Emery County. The landscape is defined by massive peaks and high plateaus, notably Flagstaff Peak and Dry Mountain, which overlook the steep drainage of Wrigley Creek and Indian Creek. At this time, the area served primarily as summer grazing land, evidenced by the presence of the Larsen Ranch and Hansen Ranch located near the edge of Lower Joes Valley. The map, surveyed by W. B. Upton, Jr., provides a precise record of the natural topography and early livestock infrastructure before modern roads altered access to these high ridges. Local landmarks like The Pines, White Mtn, and Ferron Mountain are carefully delineated, marking the high-country points that guided early travelers and rangers through this part of the Wasatch Range.
