About this map

Dixie National Forest covers the majority of this high-altitude landscape, where numerous forks and springs drain toward the E Fork Sevier River. The terrain is defined by its drainage network, including Cow Cr and Cottonwood Cr, alongside named landmarks like Lightning Hollow. This area serves as a critical watershed, evidenced by the Mountain Spring Fork Reservoir and the presence of Mountain Spring and Beebe Spring in the high country.

Transportation through this portion of Garfield County is limited primarily to backcountry routes like the Mount Dutton Trail and Deer Creek Trail, which provide access to the various forks of Rock Cr. To the east, the geography transitions into the broad expanse of Johns Valley, where Johns Valley Rd follows the valley floor near Sweetwater Cr. The map captures the specialized hydrology of the region, from the Dry Fork Rock Cr to the N Fork Prospect Cr.
