2023 Map of Blanding North

About this map

Manti-La Sal National Forest dominates the northern reaches of this map, where the high terrain is deeply incised by drainages like Devil Canyon and Bulldog Canyon. This landscape transitions southward into a complex system of plateaus and mesas, most notably Mustang Mesa and Alkali Point. Water management is central to the area's geography, evidenced by the large Recapture Reservoir and the Blanding City Number Three Reservoir which feed the local community. The grid of Blanding occupies the southwestern corner, showing the residential layout and the location of the Blanding City Cem. Genealogists and local historians can trace the road networks, such as Radio Hill Rd and Old Co Hwy, that connect these high-desert settlements to the surrounding canyons and resource areas.
