2002 Map of Central East

About this map

Pine Valley and the community of Central serve as the primary human anchors on this landscape dominated by the eastern reaches of the Dixie National Forest. The Santa Clara River winds through the valley, flanked by Mahogany Valley and several high-altitude landmarks such as Atchinson Mountain and Harrison Peak. Significant local-history identifiers include the Pine Valley Chapel, a local Cem, and the Pine Valley Visitor and Work Center. The area's reliance on essential water sources is clearly documented through numerous labels for locations like Mountain House Spring, Eightmile Spring, and Indian Spring. Evidence of early infrastructure and resource extraction is found in the Cinder Pit, Gravel Pit, and various 4wd tracks and the Summit Trail that navigate the varied terrain of Fourmile Bench and Grassy Flat.
