About this map

Goblin Valley State Park defines this landscape on the border of Emery and Wayne counties, where the high desert meets a series of dramatic geological formations. The survey, compiled from early 1980s aerial photography, documents the transition from the jagged San Rafael Reef in the northwest to the expansive San Rafael Desert in the east. Hydrological features such as Wild Horse Creek and the long Draw demonstrate the seasonal drainage patterns typical of the region. Notable landmarks including Wild Horse Butte and Mollys Castle stand as prominent navigational points amidst the complex topography. The map also records the location of Buckskin Spring and various wells, which were vital water sources for any activity in this arid portion of the San Rafael Swell.
