1957 Map of Blanding
USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
Blanding serves as the central hub for this high-desert plateau, mapped by the United States Atomic Energy Commission and the USGS during a period of significant regional interest. The town layout is characterized by its organized grid, including local amenities like a Race Track and a Drive-in Theater just north of the Cemetery. The landscape to the east is defined by a series of deep, parallel drainage systems, including Bradford Canyon, Deadman Canyon, and Cave Canyon, which flow toward the prominent Montezuma Canyon.
