About this map

Dark Canyon Plateau dominates this mid-century topographic survey, revealing a landscape defined by deeply incised drainages within the Manti-La Sal National Forest. The map is a preliminary edition, compiled from 1952 aerial photography to document the high-altitude terrain of San Juan County before more comprehensive 15-minute maps were finalized. Significant geological features include the massive Woodenshoe Canyon and Dark Canyon, which showcase the complex erosional patterns of the region.
