1954 Map of Carlisle 1 SE

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Hatch Point dominates this 1954 mapping of the high desert terrain in San Juan County, illustrating the essential water infrastructure required for livestock and survival in this arid landscape. The map meticulously records remote water sources such as Threemile Well, Threemile Creek, and several Stock Ponds scattered across the plateau. To the east, the distinct elevation of Iron Mesa rises above the surrounding flats, while Long Canyon cuts into the western reaches of the sheet. Survey markers like Vabm 6413 near the landmark Eightmile Rock provide fixed points of reference for this mid-century topographic study. The distribution of a Tank (Water) and scattered springs across the mesa highlights the late-frontier reliance on developed water points for land use and ranching in southeastern Utah.
