1954 Map of Elk Ridge 2 NW

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Beef Basin serves as the central focal point of this 1954 preliminary survey, where the convergence of deep drainage systems and high desert plateaus reveals a complex history of human habitation. The map identifies several archaeological sites, specifically noting Cliff Dwellings and various Ruins tucked into the protective alcoves of the canyon walls. These features provide a grounded record of the ancestral Puebloan presence in the region long before modern cartography.
