1968 Map of East of The Navajo

About this map

Fiftymile Mountain dominates this remote high-desert landscape in Kane County, Utah, where deep drainage systems have carved a complex network of canyons into the plateau. The topography is defined by the stark verticality of the Burning Hills and the winding paths of Rogers Canyon and Croton Canyon. At the time of this field check, the region remained nearly void of human development, with only a few primitive Jeep Trails providing access across the varied elevations. The seasonal water drainage patterns are evident in the named cuts of Sunday Canyon, Monday Canyon, and Navajo Canyon, which drain the eastern slopes of the mountain toward the Little Valley floor. Prominent landmarks such as West End Point and Mudholes Point mark the high edges of the plateau, offering significant reference points for navigating this portion of the East of the Navajo quadrangle.
