1972 Map of Mount Escalante

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Dixie National Forest covers much of this high-desert terrain in Iron County, where the landscape is defined by a complex network of draws and ridges. During the early 1970s, the area served primarily as rugged grazing and timber land, accessible by remote routes like the Telegraph Trail and various jeep tracks. The topography rises toward Mount Escalante and Haystack Mountain, providing a clear view of the drainage patterns through Broad Hollow and Sevy Hollow. Names such as Nephi Draw and Studhorse Ridge suggest the region's ranching heritage and the influence of early settlers in southern Utah. This survey provides a precise look at the backcountry before modern recreation and land management changes, tracing the seasonal watercourses of Indian Draw and Canyon Draw.
