2023 Map of Blackburn Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Kaiparowits Plateau and the surrounding high desert topography dominate this 2023 survey of Kane County. The landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, from the heights of Fiftymile Mountain down into the intricate drainage systems of Blackburn Canyon and Llewellyn Canyon. Settlement is absent in this arid stretch of Utah, but the presence of vital water sources like Gates Spring, Mudhole Spring, and Harry Colves Spring indicates the critical landmarks used by ranchers and travelers in the region. The map highlights the significant north-south passage along the Hole In The Rock Rd, a route steeped in the history of the San Juan Mission. Notable geologic and cultural features such as Window Wind Arch, Indian Gardens, and the Straight Cliffs reveal a terrain where every named spring and canyon served as a fundamental navigational anchor.
