About this map

Kanab serves as the central hub on this 2014 survey, where the red rock desert meets the organized grid of a modern township. The settlement is defined by its dramatic proximity to the Vermilion Cliffs, with residential streets like W Vermillion Dr and W Kanab Creek Dr pushing toward the canyon walls. To the east, Toms Canyon and Indian Dance Hall provide specific points of interest on the fringe of the residential area, while the Kanab City Cem offers a point of reference for family historians.

The surrounding terrain is a complex of deep incisions and high plateaus, including Three Lakes Canyon, Hog Canyon, and Pugh Canyon. The drainage of Kanab Cr and Cottonwood Cr dictates the local geography, leading south toward the Arizona border. Landmarks such as Savage Point and Cottonwood Point define the high ground, while the presence of the Kanab Municipal Airport and the Spencer Number Two Reservoir illustrate the modern infrastructure required to sustain this high-desert community.
