1987 Map of Deer Point

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The dramatic geological spine of the Waterpocket Fold dominates this mid-1980s survey, marking a stark division between the high Circle Cliffs and the deep drainage of Halls Gulch. This landscape is defined by its transition between protected lands, with the boundary of Capitol Reef National Park meeting the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area near the Red Slide. Human influence is sparse and focused on the necessities of desert travel, evidenced by remote water sources like Fountain Tanks, Clay Seep, and Dove Spring. Notable landmarks such as Brimhall Double Arch and the Halls Creek Overlook provide specific points of reference within the complex system of mesas and canyons, including the massive Big Thompson Mesa and the branching drainages of Moody Canyon.
