1964 Map of Slickrock Bench

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Hackberry Canyon and its many winding tributaries dominate this mid-century survey of the Kane County backcountry. The landscape is defined by dramatic elevation changes between high plateaus like Slickrock Bench and deep depressions such as Johnson Hole. Evidence of human activity in this isolated terrain is sparse but specific, marked by a single Prospect and a Corral near Little Dry Valley Creek. The map documents a network of traditional routes, including the Pack Trail and several Jeep Trails, which provide the only access across the Rock Springs Bench and through the Round Valley Draw. Geological landmarks such as a Natural Arch and the expansive Rush Beds highlight the unique erosional character of the region during this era of field checking by the Geological Survey.
