1953 Map of Emery 4 NE

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The San Rafael Swell dominates this mid-century topographic survey, revealing a landscape defined by dramatic geological formations and remote water sources in central Utah. The meandering course of the Muddy River cuts through the northeast, while the expansive Mussentuchit Flat occupies the western portion of the quadrangle. This preliminary edition, based on aerial photography from 1951, provides a clear view of the natural topography before extensive modern development. Notable landmarks include the prominent Mussentuchit Knoll and Cedar Mountain, alongside localized features like Johns Hole. The presence of Willow Spring Wash and a isolated Seep indicate the critical role of water points in this arid environment, serving as vital landmarks for those traversing the high desert.
