About this map

Jepson Ranch sits as a lone outpost in the high desert landscape of the mid-1950s, surrounded by a complex network of canyons and washes. The terrain is dominated by the deep incisions of Buckskin Gulch and Telegraph Wash, which carve through the plateau toward the Utah Arizona state line. This preliminary survey, based on 1953 aerial photography, reveals a remote ranching environment where movement was dictated by the natural corridors of Buckskin Hollow and the drainage at Coyote Wash. The map documents a sparsely inhabited frontier where a Water Tank or a simple Trail represented vital infrastructure. To the northeast, the elevation rises toward Five Mile Mountain, while local landmarks like Wire Pass and a topographic Sink provide specific points of reference for navigating this intricate system of dry washes and high mesas.
