This one is for the river-runners! A rare and fabulous Leslie Allen Jones scroll map of the Green River. This is the first scroll map of the Green River that we have seen. The map shows the river from Jensen to Green River, Utah. Come on by and check it out!

"Les Jones, of Heber City, Utah, was an engineer and avid river runner. Jones began running rivers at the age of eleven. He built a kayak, running most rivers solo, and taking movies from a camera mounted on a football helmet. By the early 1950`s Les began taping USGS maps together and filling in the missing contours. Les began using aerial photos, USGS maps and his own drawings and notes to trace and draw detailed maps on a scroll paper strips 7-10 inches wide. The maps were not waterproof and faded in sunlight, so they had to be protected from water and sunlight. Later his maps were copied onto waterproof mylar. Jones copied a river profile on the map above the river segments, labeling rapids and features on both. The maps contained rapid ratings, drawings of major rapids, Powell and other historic river camps, historic inscriptions and other detailed information. Les` maps were some of the first maps to contain conservation messages” (History of River Guides on the Colorado River System, Herm Hoops).
