About this map

Wild Horse Mountain dominates this portion of Carbon County, where high ridges and intricate drainages define the high desert landscape. The terrain is marked by significant geological formations including Cheyenne Ridge, Windy Ridge, and the Coal Creek Rim, showcasing a rugged topography of canyons such as Corral Canyon and Blind Canyon. Human activity in this mid-century period is largely confined to grazing and resource extraction, evidenced by Tapers Ranch and the mining-related Coal Draw in the northeast corner.
