About this map

The Manti-La Sal National Forest dominates this mid-century survey of the Utah plateau country, revealing a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes and sparse human presence. At the heart of the terrain lies Mormon Pasture, a significant upland flat surrounded by deep canyons and the distinctive Chippean Rocks. This area reflects the mid-1950s period of transition for San Juan County, where high-altitude grazing land and timber resources were the primary economic drivers before the region became widely recognized for its recreational geography.
