2011 Map of Fry Spring

About this map

Radium King Rd snakes across this high desert landscape of San Juan County, Utah, providing access to a remote canyon network during the early 21st century. The terrain is defined by dramatic geological formations, including the prominent Tables of the Sun in the east and the deep incision of Bullseye Canyon further west. In an arid region where water is a vital resource for both local wildlife and travelers, Fry Spring serves as a critical point of interest. The presence of Red Canyon Rd in the southwestern corner highlights the sparse but essential transportation network that links these isolated natural landmarks. This survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a landscape where traditional place names reflect both the physical geography and the historical mining interests of the American West.
