2018 Map of Lizard Point

About this map

Lizard Point rises as a prominent landmark in this corner of the Mojave Desert, where the high plateaus of Arizona and Utah meet. The landscape is defined by its arid drainages, most notably Mokaac Wash and Atkinville Wash, which channel water toward the southern reaches of the St. George region. Human interaction with this dry environment is evidenced by the strategic placement of State Line Reservoir and Mokaac Reservoir, alongside natural water sources like Lizard Spring and Mokaac Spring. These features suggest a history of ranching and livestock management in a territory dominated by significant topographical forms such as Mokaac Mtn and Little Black Mtn. The presence of Co HWY 5 provides the primary transit corridor through Big Valley, connecting the remote desert flats to more established routes.
