2014 Map of Devils Hole

About this map

San Rafael River snakes through the southern portion of this Emery County landscape, carving deep relief into the high desert terrain. The area is defined by a complex network of dry washes and named canyons, including the West Fork Red Canyon and the East Fork Red Canyon, which converge near the namesake Devils Hole. Historically, the land has been utilized for stock raising and resource exploration, evidenced by topographical landmarks like Horse Heaven, Jackass Flat, and Oil Well Draw. Human infrastructure is sparse, limited primarily to the unpaved Box Flat Rd which provides access to the interior flats. The presence of features such as Moonshine Waterhole highlights the critical importance of water sources in this arid environment, where drainage systems like Lockhart Wash and Big Hole Wash dominate the local geography.
