About this map

Green River Cutoff Rd traverses the arid high country of Emery County, Utah, in this 2011 survey, marking a historic path across a landscape defined by deep washes and prominent geological formations. The drainage network is particularly dense here, where Huntington Creek and Cottonwood Creek wind through the terrain to converge with the San Rafael River at Hambrick Bottom. The map documents a sparsely populated area where cattle ranching or land management is signaled by Johansen Pond and Merrials Pond.

Evidence of resource exploration appears at the center of the quadrangle with an Oil Well and a Dome feature, while the varied topography is highlighted by Hadden Reef, The Breaks, and the eponymous Hadden Holes. To the southwest, Peavine Wash and Ferron Creek further define the intricate water-carved landscape of this region, providing a detailed look at the drainage patterns that have shaped the territory east of the Wasatch Plateau.
