1954 Map of Clay Hills 2 NE

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Clay Hills terrain dominates this 1954 survey of San Juan County, revealing a landscape defined by extreme topographic relief and sparse water sources. This preliminary edition, based on 1952 aerial photography, documents the area just as modern infrastructure began to touch this corner of the state. A remote Landing Strip serves as a primary marker of human presence, likely supporting early uranium exploration or resource mapping during the Cold War era. The scarcity of water is highlighted by the identification of Green Water Spring, a Reservoir, and a small Pond, which represent critical landmarks in an otherwise arid environment. The map provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns and plateau edges before later development altered the region.
