2023 Map of Mexican Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The San Rafael River carves a sharp path through the southern reaches of this landscape, creating the dramatic oxbow at Mexican Bend just below the heights of Mexican Mountain. This desert terrain is defined by its drainage systems and high plateaus, including Horse Heaven in the northwest and Calf Mesa to the east. Transportation through this remote stretch of Emery County is limited to unimproved tracks like the San Rafael River Rd and Smith Camp Rd, highlighting the area's isolation. The map captures a complex network of seasonal watercourses, from the steep-walled Black Box to the expansive Cottonwood Wash and Tidwell Draw. These features, along with Nates Canyon and Spring Canyon, illustrate the rugged geological character of the San Rafael Swell's eastern flank.
