1986 Map of Angel Point

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Dirty Devil River carves the southwestern corner of this landscape, a region defined by intricate drainage systems and high plateaus. In the mid-1980s, the terrain was dominated by the deep incisions of North Fork Robbers Roost Canyon, Middle Fork Robbers Roost Canyon, and South Fork Robbers Roost Canyon, names that recall the area's history as a refuge for those seeking to avoid detection. On the elevated flats of Angel Point, a remote Landing Strip suggests the necessity of aerial access for ranching or surveying in this complex topography. To the south, No Mans Canyon and Larry Canyon illustrate the isolation of the territory, while Bull Pasture indicates the sparse but present livestock grazing operations that utilized the few accessible reaches above the river. This survey captures a moment when the primitive road network was the primary link between isolated landmarks like Lost Spring and the wider world.
