2020 Map of Cow Flats

About this map

Desert Lake Cem sits in the northwest corner of this Emery County landscape, marking a legacy of early settlement in a region defined by its complex drainage systems and arid plateaus. The terrain is characterized by a series of expansive flats and benches, including Cow Flats, Lemon Flats, and Wimmer Flat, which are bisected by numerous washes such as Desert Seep Wash and Red Holes Wash. Water management is a primary theme of the land use here, evidenced by the distribution of Cow Flat Reservoir, Dugway Reservoir, and several named seeps and springs.
