2023 Map of Cedar

About this map

Cedar sits at a crossroads of rugged desert drainage systems near the boundary between Carbon and Emery counties. This landscape is defined by its seasonal hydrology, where intermittent flows like Grassy Trail Creek, Icelander Creek, and Horse Creek carve through the high plateau. The network of local routes, including Price River Rd and Tram Canyon Rd, follows the natural contours of the terrain, providing access to landmarks such as The Cove and Good Water Spring. The presence of Grassy Wash and Coleman Wash further illustrates the complex erosion patterns typical of this part of eastern Utah, where water sources were critical for the development of small settlements and transportation corridors.
