2002 Map of Long Valley Junction

About this map

Long Valley Junction serves as the primary landmark in this high-elevation landscape where the East Fork Virgin River begins its course through the valley. Situated on the Markagunt Plateau, the terrain is defined by a complex network of canyons including Dairy Canyon, Stout Canyon, and Johnson Canyon, all leading away from the prominent Pink Cliffs. This 2002 revision reflects the management boundaries of the Dixie National Forest and the Cedar City Ranger District, illustrating how public lands are partitioned in this part of Kane County. Water sources are critical features of this environment, evidenced by named springs and small catchments like Mc Donald Lake, Le Vanger Lakes, and Harris Spring. The presence of a Landing Strip and Roadside Park near the junction highlights the area's role as a transit point for those navigating the high country between major regional landmarks.
