1951 Map of The Knoll

About this map

Labyrinth Canyon and the Green River dominate the western edge of this 1951 landscape, where the high desert plateaus are deeply incised by a complex network of drainages. The geography is defined by prominent landmarks such as Deadman Point, Mineral Point, and the striking Determination Towers overlooking Tusher Canyon. This era precedes the intensive modern recreational use of the region, instead highlighting the cattle and ranching infrastructure found at Arths Pasture and Klondike Flat. Human presence is sparse, marked by isolated features like Dubinky Well and various landing strips that suggest the logistical challenges of the mid-century. The map also records early industrial exploration with an Oil Well and a Mill located in the eastern sections near Sevenmile Canyon. Natural springs such as Dripping Spring and Horsethief Spr provided essential water sources in this arid environment long before extensive modern development.
