1983 Map of Shivwits

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Shivwits sits at the eastern edge of this landscape, positioned along the vital corridor of the Santa Clara River and the Upper Santa Clara Bench Canal. The map illustrates the harsh, water-dependent geography of the region, where the Santa Clara Bench meets the towering Red Mountains and the Beaver Dam Mountains. Local history is anchored by the small Cem and isolated water sources like Pahcoon Spring and Camp Spring, which provided essential stops in an arid terrain. The map's detail also captures the transition from high canyon lands, such as Wittwer Canyon and Horse Canyon, to the more level expanse of Pahcoon Flat. These landmarks, along with Hell Hole Pass, define a rugged area where resource management and topography dictated the patterns of settlement and movement.
