1954 Map of Hells Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Yampa River winds through the heart of the Dinosaur National Monument in this mid-century survey, revealing a landscape where ranching history meets protected wilderness. Settlement patterns are sparse, defined by family-named landmarks such as the Mantle Ranch and the nearby Mantle Sch, which served the small community in this isolated canyon environment. The map documents several sites already noted as being of an earlier era, including the Red Rock Ranch (Aban'd), Fred Wall Place (Aban'd), and Caldwell Place (Aban'd), offering a vital record for genealogists tracking these pioneer families.
