2020 Map of Cisco

About this map

Cisco serves as the focal point of this high-desert landscape in eastern Utah, situated where the high-speed transit of the modern interstate meets older corridors like Fish Ford Rd and the Crescent to Cisco East Rd. The terrain is defined by the broad expanse of Grand Valley, an arid basin dissected by seasonal watercourses such as Cisco Wash, Pinto Wash, and Sagers Wash. These ephemeral drainages contrast with the Colorado River, which clips the southeastern corner of the survey. Remote infrastructure points like Agate Siding and the Cisco Pumphouse reflect the logistical challenges of maintaining transport and water in this environment. Localized water sources, including Cisco Springs, Broadhead Well, and Hogan Spring, provide essential landmarks for understanding the area's historical reliance on specific points of groundwater.
