2017 Map of Blanding South

About this map

Blanding sits at the northern edge of this high desert landscape, where the street grid of S Main St and W 400 S quickly transitions into the canyon-carved terrain of San Juan County. The southern expansion of the community is anchored by the Blanding Municipal Airport and the settlement of White Mesa further south along the highway. To the east, the deep drainage of Recapture Creek defines the local topography, separating the town from the elevated Mustang Mesa. A unique historical marker, Posey S Last Shot, is noted near Corral Canyon, signifying local lore and conflict. The map traces a network of remote routes like Around the World Rd and Mustang, which connect isolated water sources including Mustang Spring and Richmond Spring across the high-altitude plateaus and points.
