1954 Map of Buckskin Gulch NW

About this map

Nephi Ranch and Clark Ranch represent the sparse human presence in this high-desert territory of southern Kane County during the early 1950s. The landscape is defined by the expansive Nephi Pasture and a complex drainage system including Deer Spring Wash and Clay Hole Wash. This 1954 preliminary survey captures the area just as aerial photogrammetry was becoming the standard for mapping such complex terrain, recording the precise contours of Johnson Lakes Canyon and the prominent cliffs of Nephi Point. The map provides a detailed view of the natural water sources critical to ranching life here, such as Wildcat Spring, and the network of dry washes like Telegraph Wash and Little Wash that shape the topography.
