2014 Map of Harts Point North

About this map

Harts Point dominates this section of San Juan County, Utah, where a dramatic plateau surface meets deep, winding erosional drainages. This high desert landscape is characterized by its isolation and limited access, with Hart Point Rd and Needles Overlook Rd providing the primary routes across the benchlands. The complex topography is carved by drainages such as Hatch Ranch Canyon and Bobbys Hole Canyon, which reveal the underlying geologic layers that define this region. Notable landmarks such as Aqueduct Arch and the natural monolith at Eight Mile Rock stand as distinct navigation points in an otherwise repeating pattern of mesas and draws. Water sources are scarce, appearing as seasonal drainages like Threemile Cr and Indian Cr that flow only during peak precipitation. The map provides a clear look at the intersection of early canyon country travel routes, including the W Short Cut and the corridor along Harts Draw.
