2023 Map of Eastland NW

About this map

Iron Springs Reservoir sits as a central water source in this high plateau region of San Juan County, illustrating the critical role of water management in Utah's arid eastern landscape. The terrain is defined by a series of significant drainage features, including Iron Spring Canyon and Bear Trap Canyon, which cut through the elevated country of West Summit. A network of local corridors like Houston Rd and Farmer Rd connects the scattered resources of Hickman Flat. The presence of the Sitton Well and various springs highlights the historical reliance on groundwater for livestock and potential settlement. This survey of the Eastland NW area captures a landscape shaped by both natural erosion, seen in N Long Draw, and human efforts to secure water via features like Boulder Creek.
