1963 Map of Robbers Roost Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The San Rafael Desert landscape of southern Utah, as documented by field checks in 1963, reveals a network of springs and canyons vital to the region's ranching history. Remote outposts like the Biddlecone Ranch and North Spring Cabin are mapped alongside crucial water sources such as Robbers Roost Spring and Hooch Spring. The intricate drainage systems of the North Fork, Middle Fork, and South Fork Robbers Roost Canyon converge near Angels Point, illustrating the natural barriers that defined this territory. Several landing strips and the presence of Texas Well suggest 20th-century exploration and resource management, while the Angels Trail and Antelope Valley Corral provide evidence of earlier livestock movement through Antelope Valley. The boundary between Emery Co and Wayne Co bisects these isolated flats and canyonlands.
