1953 Map of Moody Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Escalante River winds through this high plateau region of Southern Utah, carved by deep drainages like Twentyfive Mile Wash and Harris Wash. Surveyed in the early 1950s in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, the map records industrial interest in the landscape through mining sites such as Hotshot Prospect and Sneaky Prospect. The terrain is defined by dramatic geological formations, including the Circle Cliffs and the broad Silver Falls Bench. Evidence of human activity in this isolated area is limited to a solitary Landing Strip and named grazing areas like Cat Pasture. The map also captures the administrative boundary where the Garfield Co and Kane Co line crosses the southern portion of the quadrangle near the Scorpion plateau and Early Weed Bench.
