1954 Map of Clay Hills 1 NW

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The high plateau of San Juan County is defined by the sharp verticality of the Stair and deeply incised drainage systems recorded during this 1954 survey. The presence of a remote Landing Strip and the Red House VABM 6725 station indicate the logistical challenges of mapping this high-elevation terrain. Water sources are critical landmarks in this landscape, with Red House Spring, Collins Spring, and Lake Buckley serving as vital points of interest for livestock and early travel routes. The map illustrates a transition from the level reaches of Pollys Pasture into the complex erosion of the Gulch. This preliminary edition captures the area before modern infrastructure arrived, showing only the most essential unimproved roads and survey monuments like Steer VABM 6701.
