About this map

The Upper Valley Oil Field anchors the northwestern portion of this Garfield County landscape, marking a pocket of industrial activity within the sprawling Dixie National Forest. A network of drainage and canyon systems, including Coal Bed Canyon and Horse Spring Canyon, defines the terrain as it descends toward Little Valley in the southeast. The settlement of Upper Valley and the smaller enclave at Pet Hollow are situated along Ut-12, which follows the path of Upper Valley Cr through the high country.

Transport and access are primarily managed through specialized routes like Pet Hollow Rd and the Smokey Mountain Rd. Distinctive natural landmarks are noted throughout the sheet, from the prominent Horizon Arch in the north to isolated water sources like Oak Spring. The map documents the specific arrangement of oil extraction infrastructure and public forest boundaries as they existed in the early 21st century.
