About this map

Cedar Ridge sits as the primary settlement on this high desert landscape, positioned along the vital transportation corridor of Us-89. The map reveals a land defined by dramatic vertical relief and seasonal hydrology, where the massive Echo Cliffs and Kaibito Plateau dominate the eastern half of the survey area. These geological formations create a sharp contrast with the lower-lying drainage systems to the west, such as Shinumo Wash and Gray Spot Wash.

Water management is central to the human footprint here, illustrated by the isolated McClellan Tanks and the Eagle Nest Reservoir. To the south, the terrain levels out into Cornfield Valley, while the north is punctuated by South Red Hill and the Cedar Tree Hills. The presence of Bia-6110 highlights the intersection of modern highway travel with local Bureau of Indian Affairs routes, providing access to the more remote corners of the Limestone Ridge and Black Rock Ridge territory.
