2020 Map of Angle

About this map

Angle serves as the primary focal point of this high-plateau landscape, situated where the valley floor meets the rising slopes of the Awapa Plateau. The geography is defined by the management of water in an arid environment, anchored by the Otter Creek Reservoir and the E Fork Canal which support local agriculture. The transition from the settled valley near Little Meadows to the high elevations of the Dixie National Forest is marked by numerous named springs and livestock-related features, such as Forshea Spring Reservoir and Nicks Pond. The terrain is characterized by steep ascents toward Parker Mtn and transit points like Bedspring Pass, reflecting the area's long history as rangeland. Local routes such as Old Hwy 62 and Forest Rd 445 trace the paths through the draws and hollows that have connected these small communities for generations.
