2011 Map of Dave Canyon

About this map

Escalante Municipal Airport serves as a modern waypoint in this high-desert landscape, situated just north of the canyon systems that define the Garfield County terrain. The landscape is carved by seasonal watercourses and drainage networks, most notably Dave Canyon and Bull Run Canyon, which dominate the southern half of the quadrangle. These geological features emphasize the isolation of the area, where water sources like Rock Spring and Oak Spring were critical for early transit and land use. Access through this region is maintained by a network of local routes including Proctor Rd and Sawmill Rd, while the Glen Canyon National Rec Area Rd cuts across the northeastern section. This 2011 survey illustrates the intersection of modern infrastructure and the enduring natural topography of southern Utah.
