1968 Map of Blackburn Canyon
USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
Fiftymile Mountain dominates this portion of the Straight Cliffs, a dramatic escarpment that defines the high plateau geography of Southern Utah. This 1968 field survey reveals a landscape of deep erosional features like Monday Canyon and Buck Canyon, accessed only by a network of primitive routes designated as either Pack Trail or Jeep Trail. Such a network suggests a mid-century reliance on traditional livestock grazing and mineral exploration in a region far removed from established towns.
