1954 Map of Paria

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Paria and the surrounding high desert canyon country of Kane County are documented here in the mid-1950s, a period when this remote segment of the Salt Lake Meridian remained largely defined by early ranching outposts and remnants of pioneer activity. The mapping shows the transition of the Paria River as it carves through dramatic geological formations like The Cockscomb and Brigham Plains. This survey is particularly valuable for documenting the sites of Adairville and White House, alongside the Johnson Store, reflecting the difficult history of settlement in this arid landscape. Historical land use is further evidenced by a Prospect and a cemetery near the northern settlement, while the network of primitive transport is marked by several stretches of Jeep Trail and a localized Tunnel. Water sources, critical for survival in this terrain, are carefully noted at Pigeon Spring and various tanks across the East Clark Bench.
