1985 Map of Kigalia Point

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Manti-La Sal National Forest lands dominate this high-plateau landscape, where the massive geological divide of Elk Ridge and South Elk Ridge splits the drainage of southeastern Utah. This 1985 survey illustrates a wilderness defined by its dramatic verticality, from the towering height of Kigalia Point to the deep incisions of Dark Canyon and Hammond Canyon. The importance of water in this arid environment is evident through the inclusion of remote sites like Squaw Water Spring and Squaw Water Hole. Historically significant landmarks, including the notable Keystone Arch and the high grazing grounds of Babylon Pasture, provide essential reference points for understanding the early navigational and pastoral use of the San Juan back country.
