About this map

The city of Moab serves as the focal point for this 2020 survey, where the concentrated street grid meets the dramatic natural architecture of the desert. The Colorado River carves a deep path through the landscape, separating the residential and commercial blocks of the city from the vast terrain of Arches National Park to the north. Within the town, the Grand County Court House and a network of neighborhood roads like W McGill Blvd and Williams Way illustrate the modern development of this gateway community.

Beyond the urban center, the map documents a geography defined by wind-scoured stone and essential water sources. Natural landmarks such as Morning Glory Arch, Updraft Arch, and Pritchett Natural Bridge are indexed alongside early points of settlement like Kings Bottom and Williams Bottom. The presence of Jackson Reservoir and Matrimony Spring highlights the critical role of water management in Spanish Valley, while recreation trails like The Whole Enchilada and the Slickrock area reflect the region's contemporary identity.
