1964 Map of Griffin Point

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Dixie National Forest covers the high-elevation terrain of the Escalante Mountains, where the landscape is defined by a network of steep canyons and isolated plateaus like Griffin Top. This mid-1960s survey illustrates a rugged backcountry environment where primary access relied on a pack trail or jeep trail rather than developed roads. The presence of the Corn Creek Mine and Cherry Creek Mine indicates historical extraction efforts tucked away in the deep drainages of Corn Creek and Cherry Creek. At the northeastern edge, the North Creek Reservoir sits at the confluence of North Fork Creek and its tributaries, serving as a critical water source for the arid region. The map also records early surveying landmarks, specifically the Salt Lake Meridian, which bisects the central peaks near Griffin Point.
