About this map

San Rafael Reef and the Moroni Slopes dominate this arid landscape along the Emery and Wayne county line in the late 1980s. The map illustrates a region defined by dramatic uplift and erosion, where the winding course of Muddy Creek carves through geological features like The Chute and Chimney Canyon. The presence of several adits near the center of the sheet indicates historic prospecting activity within the jagged outcrops of the reef system.

Remote reaches such as Keesle Country and Sinbad Country flank the central waterway, while the lower elevations near Salt Wash and Caineville Reef show the transition into the desert floor. Collectors and geologists will find interest in the precise placement of water sources like Bullberry Spring and landmarks like Segers Hole and Johns Hole, which provided essential navigation points in this complex terrain.
