1954 Map of The Wickiup

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Sinbad country and the San Rafael Swell characterize this mid-century desert landscape, where the San Rafael River cuts through the deep gorge of the Black Box. The map reveals a remote territory marked by resource exploration and ranching history, evidenced by the Oil Well Test Holes (Aban'd) and various water features named for local figures, such as Charley Holes and Crawford Holes. High-elevation landmarks like The Wickiup and Block Mtn rise above extensive sagebrush flats and benches. A network of primitive transport is visible via the Jeep Trail, providing access to isolated spots like Arsons Garden and Lone Parson Hole before the era of modern highway development. The eastern edge is defined by the sharp tilt of the San Rafael Reef, which creates a natural barrier across the terrain.
