1963 Map of The Flat Tops

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The San Rafael Desert dominates this 1963 survey, revealing a landscape defined by isolated water sources and deep canyon topography in Emery and Wayne counties. Mapping conducted in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission highlights the era's focus on resource exploration, noted by various prospects and a mine scattered across the arid terrain. The remote nature of the region is underscored by the presence of a Landing Field and a Landing Strip, likely serving as vital links for surveyors and geologists working far from established roads.
