About this map

Flagstaff Peak and the high elevations of the Wasatch Plateau define this territory within the Manti-La Sal National Forest. The landscape is etched by a complex network of canyons and ridges, including the prominent Big Ridge and the dramatic geological feature known as The Box. Water management is central to the area's geography, evidenced by the Wrigley Springs Reservoir and numerous named water sources such as Wrigley Spring, Jason Spring, and Birch Spring.

Transitioning across the tri-county borders of Sanpete, Emery, and Sevier, the map details an extensive trail system utilized for resource management and recreation. Key routes like the Flagstaff Pipeline Trl and the Muddy Creek Middle Trl follow the natural contours of the land, connecting high mountain basins to lower areas like South Sage Flat. This modern survey documents the persistent importance of high-altitude water sources and cattle-grazing flats in the Utah highlands.
