1986 Map of Angel Cove

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Dirty Devil River carves a deep, winding path through this corner of Wayne County, Utah, defining a landscape of high plateaus and abrupt descents. This 1980s-era provisional survey, based on decades of field data, reveals the geographic isolation of the Burr Desert and the sweeping expanse of the Hell Hole Swale. The topography is marked by significant erosion features, from the Upper Sand Slide and Lower Sand Slide along the river banks to the steep walls of Robbers Roost Canyon. Named landmarks such as Guss Knoll and Angel Point serve as navigational markers in a region where water sources like Angel Cove Spring were essential for early travelers and cattlemen. The map traces the intricate drainage patterns of the Saw Tooth and No Mans Canyon, illustrating the complex geology of the Colorado Plateau.
