1968 Map of Kane Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Jim Sage Mountains dominate this 1960s landscape, rising sharply above the Raft River Valley in southern Cassia County. This era of land use is defined by water management and mineral exploration, evidenced by the numerous named water sources such as Red Rock Spring and Kane Springs that sustain life in the arid high-country. A lonely Prospect near Red Rock Mountain points to the area's history of small-scale mining efforts, while a network of Jeep Trails provides the primary access through the steep terrain between Sheep Mountain and Cedar Knoll. The transition from the high peaks down to the Raft River drainage, including the winding course of Cottonwood Creek, illustrates the essential relationship between the upland topography and the valley floor.
