2023 Map of Head Spur

About this map

Hans Flats and the elevated plateau of Head Spur define this high-desert landscape in eastern Wayne County. The map details the transition from level grazing lands like Lower Pasture and Upper Pasture into the complex drainage systems of Horseshoe Canyon and Millard Canyon. A portion of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area is visible along the eastern edge, characterized by the dramatic Orange Cliffs and the branching waterways of Moqui Fork and Spur Fork. Small water sources such as Outlaw Spring and Wildcat Spring serve as critical landmarks in an otherwise arid environment. The presence of a Natural Arch and the winding Orange Cliffs Trl illustrate the geological complexity and primitive transportation routes that connect these remote mesas and canyons.
