1949 Map of Paradox

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Paradox Valley and the surrounding high country appear here during a period of significant geological interest, documented in part by the United States Atomic Energy Commission. The landscape is dominated by massive flat-topped formations, including Sinwanger Mesa, Wray Mesa, and Skein Mesa, which tower over the deep winding gorge of the Dolores River. The settlement of Paradox sits near the head of its namesake creek, while the village of Bedrock occupies a strategic position where the river meets the valley floor.
