About this map

Hickman Flat dominates the central landscape of this San Juan County region, illustrating the high-plateau topography characteristic of southeast Utah. The 2020 terrain is marked by a sophisticated network of rural access routes, including Houston Rd, Old Summit Rd, and Farmer Rd, which serve the agricultural and ranching interests of the area. Water management is a primary feature of the local geography, centered around Iron Springs Reservoir and the drainage of Boulder Cr.

Erosional patterns are clearly visible through the deep incisions of South Canyon, Bear Trap Canyon, and Iron Spring Canyon. The presence of named infrastructure like Sitton Well and various county roads indicates the ongoing human efforts to navigate and utilize this arid landscape. This modern survey provides researchers with a precise record of land divisions and seasonal water sources like Iron Spring in a region defined by its significant relief and canyon systems.
