2001 Map of La Sal West

USGS Topo · Published 2004

About this map

The high desert and mountain interface of Manti-La Sal National Forest dominates this topography, where the plateau is deeply incised by drainages like Cottonwood Canyon and Joe Wilson Canyon. The landscape shows a clear divide between the forested elevations of the Moab Ranger District and the industrial activity occurring on the lower flats. Mining infrastructure is prominent, with the Lisbon Mine and several shafts, including the Hecla Shaft and an Open Pit Mine, indicating the region's mineral dependency at the turn of the 21st century. The small community of La Sal sits at a crossroads, accompanied by a Cem and a Mobile Home Park. Notable geological landmarks such as Wilson Arch and Rattlesnake Rock provide reference points for those studying the area's distinct natural formations and historic land use patterns.
