1954 Map of Carlisle 4 NW

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

North Sixshooter Peak dominates the southern reaches of this mid-century topographic survey, serving as a primary landmark in a landscape defined by deep drainage networks and high mesas. The mapping captures the complex hydrology of the San Juan region, where Indian Creek and Hart Draw carve through the high plateaus. In the southwestern corner, Salt Creek meanders through the breaks, illustrating the isolation of this corner of Utah before extensive modern road development. This preliminary edition, based on 1953 aerial photography, provides a detailed record of the unimproved roads and township lines that provided the only framework for navigation in the canyon country during the 1950s.
