1952 Map of Wild Horse

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The San Rafael Swell dominates this mid-century topographic survey, revealing a landscape of profound geological folding and erosion at the boundary of Emery and Wayne counties. The dramatic uplift of the San Rafael Reef creates a natural barrier in the southeastern portion of the quadrangle, pierced only by drainage systems like Little Wild Horse Canyon. Water management in this arid environment is evidenced by features such as Cistern Tanks, Bullberry Spring, and scattered livestock reservoirs on the plateau.
