1971 Map of Kane Canyon

About this map

Coxs Ranch sits as a central human landmark in this high-desert landscape, located near a Gaging Station along the drainages of Big Twist Creek. The map documents a rugged transition in terrain, dominated by the Hurricane Cliffs and the elevated expanse of Coyote Bench. The presence of the Old Military Reservation Boundary cutting across the northern canyons suggests the area's legacy of restricted land use and surveying. Water sources are critical points of interest in this arid environment, marked by named sites like Lees Spring, Kane Spring, and Sand Cliff Spring. Navigation through the deep incisions of Kane Canyon Creek and Scrabble Canyon is depicted via numerous jeep and pack trails, reflecting the area's history of ranching and remote land management within the Fishlake National Forest.
