1954 Map of Harts Point

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Dugout Ranch and Wilson Ranch anchor the remote pastoral and archaeological landscape of this San Juan County survey. Mapped in the mid-1950s with cooperation from the Atomic Energy Commission, the area shows a transition from cattle ranching to modern exploration, evidenced by several landing strips and numerous prospects. The western portion of the map is dominated by the nascent Canyonlands National Park, where the high desert is carved into complex drainages like Davis Canyon and Lavender Canyon. The presence of Indigenous history is remarkably dense here, with labeled sites including All American Man, Thirteen Faces, Tower Ruin, and various Petroglyphs. Notable landmarks such as North Six-shooter Peak and South Six-shooter Peak rise above the mesas, while the broad expanse of Bridger Jack Mesa defines the southern horizon.
