1951 Map of The Knoll

About this map

Green River carves through the western edge of this 1951 survey, creating the dramatic winding corridor of Labyrinth Canyon. The landscape is dominated by expansive plateaus and deep drainage networks, where remote outposts like Dubinky Well and Gil Well mark the essential water sources for cattlemen in this arid region. High points such as The Knoll and The Needles provide orientation across the high desert flats of Bartlett Flat and Klondike Flat. This map documents a period before modern recreation took hold, focusing on the grazing and ranching features of the day, including Arth Pasture and isolated water improvements like Jug Rock Reservoir and Big Flat Res. Topographic detail follows the complex canyon systems of Mineral Canyon and Spring Canyon, reaching down to the riverbank at Spring Canyon Bottom.
