2017 Map of Avon NW

About this map

The Escalante Desert dominates this Iron County landscape, where the flat basin floor is marked by ephemeral drainages and isolated aviation infrastructure. In the northern reaches, the Sun Valley Estates Airport provides a localized hub for the region's scattered settlement patterns. The topography is largely defined by wide, dry beds including Fourmile Wash and Dick Palmer Wash, which channel seasonal runoff toward the desert floor. In the south, the sudden rise of Table Butte provides a stark vertical contrast to the surrounding flats. Transportation through this arid stretch relies on a network of functional routes like the Lund Hwy and Avon Rd, while named crossings such as Bulloch RR Xing reflect the specific infrastructure required to navigate the local rail and road corridors.
