1954 Map of Mt. Waas 3 SE

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Castleton remains a focal point of this mid-century survey, indicating a shift from a former active community to a historical site within the high desert and mountain transition of Grand and San Juan Counties. The landscape is defined by massive formations such as Adobe Mesa and Harpole Mesa, with the high peaks of Horse Mountain rising to the east. Human activity is evidenced by a network of ranching and mining infrastructure, including the Porcupine Ranch, a Landing Strip, and several Shafts and Tunnels near Miners Basin. A Historical Monument in Pinhook Valley marks a specific site of local conflict, while the Manti-La Sal National Forest boundary encompasses much of the southern terrain, including Bald Mesa and the Warner Ranger Station.
