1968 Map of Johns Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Fishlake National Forest dominates this landscape, where the high ridges of the Sevier County interior are carved by the North Fork Clear Creek and Last Chance Creek. This 1960s survey records a high-country environment where narrow drainage channels and steep slopes like S B Ridge dictated the paths of numerous jeep trails. Human presence is sparse but specific, marked by the isolated Jims Farm in the northeast and the recreational footprint at Elk Campground. The southern portion of the map reveals the descent into Paradise Valley, home to Paradise Lake and a Mine site near the headwaters of Water Hollow. Land management and grazing are evident through the numerous named flats and meadows, such as Sign Board Flat and Kinneys Meadow, which served as key landmarks for those navigating the plateau before modern development reached this high elevation.
