1987 Map of Factory Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

North Caineville Reef creates a striking linear barrier across this high-desert landscape in the mid-1980s, marking a stark division in the geology of Wayne County. To its east, the prominent Factory Butte rises as a lone landmark above the flat expanse of Factory Bench, a region defined by dramatic erosion and dramatic elevation shifts. The terrain is characterized by massive, flat-topped formations like North Caineville Mesa and the expansive Moroni Slopes to the northwest. Industry is represented by a solitary Coal Mine tucked into the northern drainage, indicating the local extraction of resources amidst the barren washes. Drainage patterns like Salt Wash cut through the arid soil, while the southern portion of the map is dominated by the complex topography of the Upper Blue Hills and the stepped edges of Wood Bench.
