2017 Map of Dowdell Canyon

About this map

Confusion Range terrain dominates this portion of Millard County, where a stark network of drainages and high desert valleys defines the land use. The topography is anchored by Dowdell Canyon and Payson Canyon, which cut through the western slopes towards the open basin. Human imprint is minimal and pragmatic, centered on the aptly named Mile and a Half Rd and its namesake, Mile and a Half Canyon. To the north, the geography softens into the high-altitude grazing grounds of Cattlemens Little Valley. This survey captures the region as a high-clearance corridor of public lands, where the township and range lines of t19s r16w and t18s r15w provide the primary framework for navigation and land management.
