1991 Map of Floy Canyon South

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Floy Wash acts as the central drainage for this high-desert landscape in Grand County, Utah, where deep canyons and high points define the terrain. This 1991 provisional map captures the region's ranching and prospecting history, marked by the presence of the Crescent Mine near the base of Crescent Butte. The drainage system is complex, fed by the Left Hand Threeforks and Right Hand Threeforks in the north, while several named springs like Tom Spring, Cub Spring, and Trough Spring provide vital water points in an otherwise arid environment. The map details a network of canyons including Ute Canyon, Horse Canyon, and the sprawling Crescent Canyon system, illustrating how topography dictated movement and resource extraction in this remote part of the Colorado Plateau.
