1960 Map of Calamity Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Calamity Camp and Arrowhead Camp anchor this rugged section of the Colorado plateau, reflecting a landscape defined by mid-century uranium and vanadium prospecting. The terrain is a complex network of high mesas and deep drainages, where Potato Mountain rises above the vast expanse of Outlaw Mesa and Calamity Mesa. The map reveals a high density of mining activity, with numerous named operations like the Hidden Treasure Mine, Cliffdweller Mines, and the Stormy Treasure Mine dotting the canyon walls.
