1963 Map of Hanksville

About this map

Hanksville serves as the central hub of this arid landscape, situated at the confluence where the Fremont River and Muddy Creek join to form the Dirty Devil River. The map illustrates a mid-century aviation and communication footprint, featuring the South Hanksville Airport, the Hanksville Landing Field, and a prominent Radio Facility. To the east, the terrain transitions into the San Rafael Desert and the labyrinthine Robbers Roost Canyon, areas historically defined by their isolation.
