1970 Map of Antone Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Book Cliffs dominate this eastern Utah landscape, forming a massive escarpment that dictates the movement of water and travelers alike. At the transition from the high plateau to the desert floor, a network of drainages including Sulphur Canyon and Antone Canyon carve through the sedimentary layers, converging toward Sulphur Creek. This 1970 survey, later updated with mid-1980s aerial data, reveals a workspace of the modern era where resource extraction and traditional land use meet. Scattered Drill Holes on the upper benches indicate geological exploration, while the presence of Cato Springs and various named washes like Cottonwood Wash and Buck Canyon highlight the critical importance of water sources in this arid environment. Navigation is limited to a sparse network of a Jeep Trail and primitive footpaths that follow the natural contours of the canyon floors and cliff edges.
