1951 Map of Upheaval Dome

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Colorado River and Green River converge in this high-desert territory, carving the deep canyons and labyrinthine mesas that would eventually become Canyonlands National Park. This 1951 aerial survey documents the dramatic geological structure of Upheaval Dome and the broad expanses of the White Rim before the region saw heavy modern visitation. Evidence of earlier human presence is noted at a Cliff Dwelling near Aztec Butte, while industrial interests are hinted at by a Shaft located in Willow Flat.
