1966 Map of Podunk Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Paunsaugunt Plateau dominates this high-altitude landscape where the headwaters of Kanab Creek and Podunk Creek carve deep into the geological record. This mid-1960s survey documents a critical junction of public lands, showing the boundary where the Dixie National Forest meets the eastern edge of Bryce Canyon National Park. The topography is defined by the massive escarpments of the Pink Cliffs and Sunset Cliffs, which create dramatic vertical relief across the quadrangle. Human presence is sparse and focused on land management and transit, evidenced by the Podunk Guard Station and the remote Gaging Station along the East Fork. High mountain passes like Yovimpa Pass and Crawford Pass connect the various drainage systems, while a network of jeep trails and a Pipeline through Meadow Canyon trace the early modernization of this remote backcountry.
