2011 Map of Moab

About this map

Moab Valley serves as a dramatic corridor for the Colorado River as it winds through this sandstone landscape in the early twenty-first century. The city of Moab is centered near the confluence of Mill Creek and Pack Creek, showing a dense grid of streets that transition into the wider agricultural and residential stretches of Spanish Valley. Evidence of the region's industrial and environmental history is visible at the Atlas Mineral Tailings Pond Dam along the riverbanks, while the surrounding desert is defined by its remarkable geological features, including Corona Arch, Morning Glory Arch, and Pritchett Natural Bridge. Local landmarks such as the Moab Post Office and Grand Valley Cemetery anchor the community, while the Sunbird Airport and South Park Avenue Trailhead highlight the area's role as a base for modern exploration and travel.
