1968 Map of Wood Canyon

About this map

Nine Mile Creek and Argyle Creek define the drainage patterns of this high-elevation landscape, where the Duchesne Co and Carbon Co border traverses the terrain along Argyle Ridge. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the Bad Land Cliffs and the southern reaches of the Ashley National Forest. A notable historical marker, the Old Indian Treaty Boundary, cuts through the northeast corner, reflecting early land management and indigenous relations in the region. The map reveals a network of canyons, including Birch Bottom Canyon and Sheep Canyon, accessible primarily by a remote Jeep Trail. A solitary Drill Hole in the western reaches suggests subsurface exploration in an area otherwise characterized by deep-cut ravines and steep ridgelines.
