1885 Map of East Tavaputs

About this map

The East Tavaputs Plateau dominates this late nineteenth-century topographic study, which documents the complex drainage systems and massive escarpments of eastern Utah. The landscape is defined by the sharp vertical relief of the Roan or Brown Cliffs and the Book Cliffs, which separate the higher plateau from the lower Grand River Valley. In the southeast, the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad corridor follows the valley floor, providing a vital transportation link through this challenging terrain.
