Download or read book Moab and Grand County written by Travis Schenck and published by Images of America. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grand County's story begins long before the first white settlers entered the valley. The land holds ruins, artifacts, and remnants of many ancient peoples, including Ute, Navajo, Anasazi, and others. Spanish missionaries--who were seeking gold as much as souls--were followed by French fur traders into the mid-1800s, and the end of the Mexican-American War in 1848 brought the land to be known as Grand County into the Union. Soon, the valley was teeming with settlers. In 1880, the name "Moab" appeared in the US Postal Register; it was chosen by William Peirce, a businessman who became the town's first postmaster, and was a reference to the Biblical desert. In 1902, Moab, Utah, was officially incorporated. The coming railroads brought more settlers from around the world. Basque sheepherders, Chinese laborers, and African American cowboys joined followers of Brigham Young to become residents of the growing county. Towns like Thompson, Cisco, and Stateline sprang up along with fruitful orchards, and peaches from Moab were being served at restaurants in Paris.

Download or read book Drilling at Polar Mesa Grand County Utah and Review of Favorability Criteria Used written by Robert L. Redmond and published by . This book was released on 1954 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On Polar Mesa in Grand County, Utah, a total of 37,904 feet was drilled by the Atomic Energy Commission in 1950 under contract AT(30-1)-761. The mesa was again drilled during the period June 1952 to February 1953, under contract AT(30-1)-1265, which totaled 49,838 feet. This report deals primarily with the most recent project. The principal uranium-vanadium-bearing unit of the Salt Wash sandstone is approximately 270 feet above the Entrada-Summerville contact. It is a massive yellow-brown sandstone ranging in thickness from 10 to 70 feet. A method of correlation involving the projection, parallel to the regional dip, of a constant thickness of sediments was an aid in exploration drilling.

Download or read book Geologic Hazards of Moab Spanish Valley Grand County Utah written by Michael D. Hylland and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 2003 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moab Valley and the contiguous Spanish Valley comprise a popular residential and recreational area in east-central Utah. Geologic processes that created the rugged and scenic landscape of Moab-Spanish Valley are still active today and can be hazardous to property and life. To address development in areas with geologic hazards, the Utah Geological Survey (UGS) conducted a geologic-hazards investigation to provide information to Moab City and Grand County to help guide development and reduce losses from geologic hazards. This report includes maps of Moab Valley and the northern and central parts of Spanish Valley that provide information on geologic hazards to assist homeowners, planners, and developers in making informed decisions. The maps show areas where hazards may exist and where site-specific studies are advisable prior to development. The maps are for planning purposes only, and do not preclude the necessity for site investigations. Site-specific studies by qualified professionals (engineering geologists, geotechnical engineers, hydrologists) should evaluate hazards and, if necessary, recommend hazard-reduction measures. Because of the small scale of the maps, some hazard areas are not shown; hazard studies are therefore recommended for all critical facilities (for example, hospitals, schools, fire stations), including those outside the mapped hazard areas.
