New County Road Survey by Marehall and Atherly
Marehall and Atherly completed a county road survey from Basin to Shell. The proposed route runs toward Peay flat then climbs a canyon and divides, meeting the present road near the Howard place. It reduces distance by about two miles and avoids a bad land section with a ten percent grade in the canyon. The land settlements along section lines necessitate a new road, making this survey the most practical and shortest option.
