2017 Map of Fry Spring

About this map

Red Rock Plateau dominates this section of San Juan County, Utah, where a complex network of drainage systems has carved distinct landforms into the high desert. The map captures the significant elevation changes between the Tables of the Sun and the deep incisions of North Fork Red Canyon and South Fork Red Canyon. The presence of Radium King Rd and Moss Back Rd indicates the historical paths of resource extraction and transit through this challenging landscape, connecting remote points like Fry Spring. Local landmarks such as Moss Back and the Tables of the Sun Hills serve as essential navigational markers. The terrain's character is further defined by evocative place names like Bullseye Canyon and False Trail Canyon, reflecting the intricate and often deceptive nature of the geological formations found here.
