1954 Map of Canyon Of Lodore South

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The confluence of the Green River and the Yampa River serves as the focal point of this 1954 survey within Dinosaur National Monument. This remote landscape is defined by the deep incision of the Canyon of Lodore, featuring treacherous rapids like Hells Half Mile. The map highlights several points of historical human presence, including Massey Cabin and Gardners Cabin, which represent the early ranching and frontier era in Moffat County. Notable landmarks such as Steamboat Rock and Jenny Lind Rock dominate the vertical geography near Echo Park (Pats Hole). The cartography illustrates a complex network of draws and ridges, such as Limestone Ridge and Iron Mine Ridge, which directed the movement of early explorers and homesteaders through this part of the Colorado Plateau.
