2020 Map of Cogswell Point

About this map

The Virgin Wild and Scenic River carves a dramatic course through this portion of the Washington and Kane county line, anchoring a landscape of named flats and high points. Modern residential development is concentrated in Oak Valley, where a network of local roads including Oak Valley Rd and Oak Tree Dr provides access to the higher terrain. This area is defined by its verticality, transitioning from the floor of Box Canyon and the riparian corridor of Crystal Cr to prominent summits like Miners Peak and Thorley Point. Land use patterns here emphasize the preservation of the river corridor, while the naming of features such as Virgin Flats, Burnt Flat, and Hogs Heaven reflects a long history of local geographic identification in this southwestern corner of Utah.
