1968 Map of Ship Mountain Point

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Ship Mountain Point rises as a central landmark in this 1968 study of Kane County's high desert landscape. The map details a complex network of plateaus and drainage systems, defined by the broad expanses of Fourmile Bench and John Henry Bench. This area of southern Utah is characterized by its steep-walled canyons, including Wesses Canyon and Clints Canyon, which feed into the Last Chance Creek watershed. Significant geological formations such as Pilot Rock and Pilot Knoll stand out as navigational aids in a region where water sources like Drip Tank were essential for movement. The southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the northern reaches of Smoky Mountain, while the name Dirty Devil appears in the lower drainage, reflecting the stark and challenging nature of the terrain as it was recorded during the late 1960s.
