2020 Map of Copper Globe

About this map

The San Rafael Swell dominates this portion of Emery County, defining a landscape of deep canyons and high mesas. Centered on Copper Globe, the terrain is marked by the presence of the Copper Globe Landing Strip, suggesting the remote nature of this geological uplift. Drainage patterns are sharply defined by the seasonal Reed Wash and the winding South Salt Wash, while prominent elevations like Secret Mesa and Square Top rise above the surrounding benches. A network of primitive roads, including the Link Flat Rim Rd and Red Canyon Loop, provides access through the flats and draws. Geological features like The Dike and the expansive Justensen Flats further illustrate the area's complex desert morphology.
