Black Jack Park and Ivan Boyd Prairie – Ariel View
Black Jack Park and Ivan Boyd Prairie as LiDar Image (US 56 running right to left at top; E. 2000 Rd. running top to bottom through center)

Above are current ariel views of the Black Jack Crossing area.  The lower uses LiDar technology to remove all vegetation from view and show what is below the surface.  Here, the ruts left by the wagons on the trail are easily see.  The creek can be seen as well.  (Also roads and bases to structures – anything severely altering that earth’s surface). 

What you are seeing:  The creek (to left of center); the ruts (center – currently surrounded by walking trail); newly uncovered ruts (upper); location of Black Jack Cabin (X).
