1985 Map of Cathedral Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Canyonlands National Park and the Manti-La Sal National Forest meet in this high-elevation landscape, where the geology of the Colorado Plateau defines the human geography. The map shows a transition from the desert mesa systems to the forested highlands of the Davis Buttes and Maverick Point. Notable landmarks such as Wedding Ring Arch and Cleft Arch are documented in the northern reaches, while the central Cathedral Mesa rises above the winding corridor of Salt Creek. Human activity is marked by a network of trails and resource extraction, visible in the Pack Trail traversing Stevens Canyon and an isolated Prospect and Adit near the edge of Bridger Jack Mesa. The inclusion of Mormon Pasture and Mormon Pasture Point reflects the historical grazing patterns of early Utah settlers in this demanding terrain.
