1985 Map of Merrimac Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Merrimac Butte and Monitor Butte dominate the southwestern reaches of this high desert landscape, serving as prominent landmarks near the winding path of Sevenmile Canyon. This mid-1980s provisional survey captures a network of canyons and washes that define the approach to Arches National Park, which occupies the eastern margin of the sheet. The terrain is marked by geological curiosities and resource extraction, from the Slickenslides Arch and Uranium Arch to scattered operations like a Mine Shaft and Gravel Pit.
