1952 Map of Notom 4 SE

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Sandy Ranch sits as a primary outpost within this high-desert landscape, located just west of the Elbow of the Sandy. This 1952 topographic study, based on 1951 aerial photography, illustrates a rugged terrain defined by significant vertical relief and intermittent water sources. The drainages of Sandy Creek and Oak Creek have carved deep paths through the Sandy Creek Benches, while a canal and scattered reservoirs indicate early 1950s efforts to manage water in an arid environment. Notable geological features like Wild Horse Mesa and Cedar Mesa dominate the eastern and central portions of the quadrangle. Significant elevation changes are marked by The Narrows and numerous canyons, such as North Coleman Canyon and South Coleman Canyon, providing a detailed record of the trails and natural corridors like the Bitter Spring Trail that served as vital passages for ranchers and travelers.
