1952 Map of Bull Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Bull Mountain and the eastern flanks of the Henry Mountains dominate this early 1950s landscape, a region defined by high desert terrain and isolated outposts. The survey shows a sparsely settled territory where life centered on reliable water sources, evidenced by Fairview Ranch and Granite Ranch, along with several engineered catchments such as Goatwater Point Reservoir and Lone Cedar Reservoir. This era of mapping was influenced by regional interest in mineral exploration, noted by the presence of a Mine and a Prospect tucked into the canyons. Geologic and geographic transitions are marked by the wide Burr Desert to the east and the intricate drainage systems of Little Egypt Wash and Poison Spring. Significant landmarks like Adams Butte and Trachyte Point provide navigational anchors across the dry benches and deep canyons of this Garfield County interior.
