2017 Map of Black Rock

About this map

The arid drainage of the Beaver River dominates this landscape in southwestern Millard County, where seasonal water sources and desert terrain meet. The settlement of Malone sits at a junction of early section roads, including W 15300 S St, marking a point of human habitation in a region otherwise characterized by vast stretches of the Escalante Desert. To the north, a cluster of vital desert water sources such as Big Spring, Alkali Spring, and The House Spring emerge near the riverbed, highlighting the critical nature of these features for ranching and survival in the high desert. To the south, the Beaver Bottoms and the channel of Cove Cr indicate a topography shaped by intermittent flows, while a network of surveyed roads like Black Rock Rd provides the modern framework for traversing this historically isolated terrain.
