2017 Map of Cedar City

About this map

Cedar City serves as the focal point of this 2017 survey, situated at the base of the dramatic Hurricane Cliffs and The Red Hill. The map documents the city's academic and civic infrastructure, anchored by the campuses of Southern Utah Univ and George Wythe Univ, along with the Cedar City Cem and Cedar City Regional Airport. The terrain to the east rises sharply into high-elevation features like Cedar Mtn and Square Mtn, while the western landscape is defined by the Cross Hollow Hills and the winding course of Coal Cr. A notable geological transition is visible in the south, where the modern city grid meets the ancient Lava Flow near The Iron Bowl. This record captures the interaction between a growing urban center and the complex high-desert topography of Iron County, from the seasonal drainage of Squaw Cr to the high-country waters of Green Lake.
