2002 Map of Blind Spring Mountain

About this map

Dixie National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape, where the Powell Ranger District manages a rugged terrain defined by significant elevation changes. The hydrology of the region is anchored by Sanford Creek, which is fed by the Left Fork Sanford Creek and Right Fork Sanford Creek as they descend from the slopes of Blind Spring Mountain. Evidence of early water management appears in the west with the Old State Ditch, a feature that highlights the historical effort to divert water across the arid basins. To the east, the landscape transitions into unique geological formations such as the Sand Wash Bench and Limekiln Gulch, while high-country water sources like Seed Lakes and Cellar Spring provided essential stopovers for travelers and livestock using the area's network of remote trails and 4WD tracks.
