2002 Map of Death Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 2005

About this map

Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument dominates this 2002 topographic survey, revealing a landscape defined by dramatic drainage systems and high plateaus. The map details the transition from the high elevations of the Dixie National Forest in the northwest to the intricate canyonlands below. Prominent geological features like Death Ridge and the deep incisions of Right Hand Collet Canyon demonstrate the erosional forces at work in this part of Garfield County. Sparse evidence of human infrastructure is found in isolated water management points like Death Ridge Reservoir and scattered water sources such as Mossy Spring and Star Seep. A single Drill Hole in the northern section indicates subsurface exploration within the Escalante District, while seasonal drainages like Alvey Wash and Blue Wash highlight the ephemeral nature of the local hydrology.
