1964 Map of Calf Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Boulder Town sits at the northern edge of this high-plateau landscape, where the corporate boundary meets the rugged descent into Dry Hollow. This 1964 field-checked survey highlights the complex drainage system of Calf Creek, featuring both the Upper Calf Creek Falls and Lower Calf Creek Falls. The geography is defined by expansive plateaus like Durffey Mesa and Big Flat, separated by deep canyons and prominent benches such as New Home Bench and Haymaker Bench. Downstream, the Escalante River carves through the sandstone, revealing geological landmarks including the Escalante Natural Bridge and Maverick Bridge. Evidence of early habitation and natural wonders are noted throughout the canyons, from the Pictographs near the river to the towering Phipps Arch and Bowington Arch. The presence of the Calf Creek Recreation Area and its associated Campground indicates the mid-century development of this area for public access and conservation.
