1953 Map of Hall Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Circle Cliffs dominate the western landscape of this mid-century survey, where the dramatic elevation changes of the Colorado Plateau create a complex network of canyons and mesas. Remote ranching and early petroleum exploration define the human presence here, anchored by Baker Ranch along the banks of Baker Creek. A small Landing Strip and an Oil Well (Aban'd) near Middle Point speak to the era's industrial interests in the canyon country. Navigation through the region relies on primitive routes like the Jeep Trail crossing Hall Divide, which connects the high ground of Hall Mesa to the drainage of Halls Creek. The intricate topography includes significant landmarks like Clay Point and Saleratus Point, illustrating the stark geology of the Garfield and Kane County borderlands before modern development reached this part of southern Utah.
