1973 Map of Escalante Forks

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Steamboat Mesa and Bar Bench dominate this high-desert plateau landscape, where the confluence of the North Fork Escalante Creek and Escalante Forks marks a rare point of settlement. The 1973 field check reveals a network of pack trails and primitive 4WD routes navigating the complex drainage systems of Little Dominguez Creek and Wildhorse Draw. Within the Uncompahgre National Forest, family-named landmarks like Bennetts Basin and Barklay Gulch provide important reference points for regional history researchers and genealogists tracking land use in the Mesa County backcountry.
