About this map

Cisco stands as a focal point in this high-desert landscape of eastern Utah, situated where the terrain is defined by a network of seasonal drainages. The settlement's relationship with the surrounding environment is dictated by the paths of Cisco Wash and Danish Wash, which snake through the arid plains toward the south. The southeastern corner of the map reveals a critical transition as these desert washes approach the Colorado River, near the site of Cisco Landing.

Infrastructure in this area is sparse, characterized by long-distance routes and specific service roads like Cisco Pump House Rd. The presence of Hogan Spring suggests the vital importance of scattered water sources in a region otherwise dominated by dry beds like Sagers Wash and Nash Wash. This survey captures the spatial isolation of these outposts and the topographical layout of the drainage basins that drain the plateau toward the river corridor.
