2017 Map of Hell'n Moriah Canyon

About this map

Hell'n Moriah Canyon serves as a central focal point in this remote Millard County landscape, cutting between the high elevations of the House Range to the east and the southern reaches of the Confusion Range to the west. The terrain is defined by extreme relief and isolated water sources, including Jackson Pond and Watsons Gow Pond, which suggest the vital importance of seasonal water management in this arid environment. The presence of Tule Valley Rd provides the primary north-south corridor through the valley floor, connecting disparate topographic features such as Sawtooth Mtn and the uniquely named Hell'n Moriah Kitchen. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates the complex drainage patterns of Blackham Canyon and Arms Canyon, offering a detailed view of the Great Basin's landform characteristics and the sparse infrastructure that supports activity in this part of western Utah.
