2023 Map of Abes Knoll

About this map

The high tablelands of the Awapa Plateau define this section of south-central Utah, where the border between Piute Co and Wayne Co cuts diagonally across the terrain. This landscape is characterized by a sophisticated system of high-elevation water management, visible through a network of catchments including Fish Lake Reservoir, Deadman Hollow Reservoir, and Abes Knoll Reservoir. The map documents the eastern reaches of Grass Valley and the descent into Hatch Canyon, while the prominent summit of Abes Knoll serves as a local landmark. Much of the northern terrain is managed as part of the Fish Lake National Forest, showing a remote geography of ridges like Black Ridge and drainages like Parker Hollow that have remained largely undeveloped into the twenty-first century.
