1985 Map of Marble Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Picture Gallery Ranch and Spring Creek Ranch sit within a high-elevation landscape defined by the drainage systems of the Book Cliffs region. This mid-1980s topography documents the intersection of remote ranching outposts and aviation infrastructure, with several Landing Strips and a primary Landing Strip supporting access to these isolated properties. The terrain is marked by deep incisions like Marble Canyon and Star Canyon, which carry seasonal runoff toward the state line. In the southern portion of the map, Renegade Creek and Cow Creek wind through the complex topography near Red Gap. The cartography also captures the boundary where Grand County and Mesa County meet the Utah-Colorado border, illustrating the transition from the high flats of Fish Park to the sloping benches of Piñon Mesa.
