1954 Map of Hatch Point

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Colorado River carves a dramatic path through the canyons of San Juan County, Utah, defining a landscape of deep basins and high mesas during the mid-1950s. This survey, conducted with cooperation from the Atomic Energy Commission, captures the early industrial footprint of the region, including oil wells and an oil tank near the Shafer Basin. The terrain is marked by a network of drainage systems like Kane Springs Canyon and Hatch Wash, alongside high-elevation survey markers such as Eightmile Rock. Land use is concentrated around water sources like Threemile Well and Trout Water Reservoir, while remote access is facilitated by a landing strip and a series of tunnels. Notable landmarks like Dead Horse Point and the Goose Neck overlook the river, anchoring a territory defined by its complex geology and emerging energy exploration.
