1952 Map of Swallow Canyon

About this map

The Green River carves a deep path through the northeast corner of Utah, entering the dramatic narrows of Swallow Canyon as it flows toward the Colorado border. This mid-century survey records a landscape dominated by the northern reaches of the Uinta Mountains and the broad, high basin of Browns Park. The map documents a complex drainage system where seasonal watercourses like Crouse Creek, Beaver Creek, and Willow Creek descend from the ridges.
