1953 Map of Fiddler Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The Dirty Devil River winds through a deeply incised landscape in this mid-century survey of the Wayne and Garfield County line. The geography is characterized by high, isolated plateaus such as Sams Mesa and Bert Mesa, which are separated from the surrounding lowlands by dramatic topographic drops. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by a landing strip near The Big Ridge and a prospect site located near Poison Spring Canyon, reflecting the era's mineral exploration interests which involved the Atomic Energy Commission.
