About this map

San Rafael River carves a deep, sinuous path through this 1953 survey of Emery County, Utah. The landscape is dominated by the dramatic uplift of the San Rafael Swell, featuring prominent natural landmarks like Bottleneck Peak, Assembly Hall, and the towering Window Blind Peak. This preliminary edition map details a complex network of canyons and plateaus, including The Wedge and Prickly Pear Flat, illustrating the natural barriers that shaped movement through the region before modern infrastructure was fully established.
