About this map

Dixie National Forest defines the rugged geography of this Garfield County quadrangle, where high-altitude drainages form a complex network of creeks and springs. The northern section is anchored by Mountain Spring Reservoir and the Mountain Spring Fork, while the eastern edge transitions into the wide expanse of Johns Valley. The landscape is a vital watershed for the East Fork Sevier River, with numerous named watercourses like Cow Creek and Cherry Creek carving through the terrain.

Transportation in this area is limited to primitive forest routes and historic trails, including the Mount Dutton Trl and Rock Creek Trl. These pathways provide access to remote landmarks such as Beebe Spring and the Dry Fork Rock Creek. The layout of these trails and the proximity of the main Johns Valley Rd offer insight into how this part of the national forest has been managed and navigated into the twenty-first century.
