1966 Map of Skutumpah Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Skutumpah Creek and its complex network of seasonal drainages define this mid-1960s landscape in Kane County. The terrain is characterized by dramatic elevation shifts across the Skutumpah Terrace and the jagged erosional features of the Red Breaks. Evidence of early cattle ranching and movement through the backcountry is preserved through the naming of the Old Corral Trail and numerous water sources like First Point Spring and Cottonwood Spring. This era shows a landscape primarily utilized for grazing and transit, with little permanent infrastructure beyond established jeep trails. Distinctive landmarks such as Table Mountain and Carly Knoll served as essential navigational markers for those moving between Mill Creek and Johnson Canyon. The map reveals a high-desert environment where topographic names like Coal Canyon and Mineral Creek suggest the underlying geology that shaped local land use and exploration.
