1952 Map of Torrey

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Thousand Lake Mountain dominates the western skyline of this 1952 topographic study, its high plateaus punctuated by numerous alpine waters such as Deep Creek Lake and Neff Reservoir. The settlement of Torrey sits at the base of the uplift, where the Fremont River begins its descent through the striking geological features of the Waterpocket Fold. This era predates the expansion of modern park boundaries, capturing Capitol Reef National Monument in a more restricted footprint than today, centered on landmarks like Chimney Rock and Capitol Canyon.
