1954 Map of Shinarump NW

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Shinarump Cliffs define the dramatic topographical divide across this 1950s borderland where Arizona meets Utah. The landscape is marked by the infrastructure of remote ranching and early aviation, centered around Buttons Ranch and Chatterly Ranch near the Johnson Wash. A specialized economy of livestock management is evident through numerous Stock Reservoirs and a lone Windmill, while the presence of an Abandoned Airstrip west of the Winter Road points to the changing logistics of mid-century desert life. Notable terrain features like Crowbar Point and Shinarump Point overlook the deep incisions of Wildcat Canyon and Jacob Canyon, illustrating the erosive power that has shaped this part of the Colorado Plateau. This mapping was produced during a period of transition, released as a preliminary edition to provide immediate data on this sparsely populated region.
