About this map

Circle Cliffs and the prominent Lamp Stand formation anchor this high-desert landscape in Garfield County. The geography is defined by a series of dramatic escarpments and canyon systems, including Egg Canyon, Wolverine Canyon, and Long Canyon. This territory is managed between two major public lands: Dixie National Forest on the western edge and Capitol Reef National Park in the northeast corner.

Transportation through this isolated terrain is limited to historic backcountry routes. Burr Trail Rd snakes across the center of the sheet, providing access to landmarks like Long Canyon Overlook and King Bench. The map also traces Wolverine Loop Rd as it skirts Rattlesnake Bench, offering a detailed view of the drainage patterns and plateaus such as White Canyon Flat and The Flats that characterize the Colorado Plateau's interior.
