2011 Map of Moonwater Point

About this map

Moonwater Point and Chandler Point define the high, dissected plateaus of Uintah County in this early 21st-century record. The landscape is characterized by a complex network of deep drainages, including Chandler Canyon and Deep Canyon, which drop away from the prominent ridges. These canyons serve as the primary geographical markers in a territory largely defined by its hydrological features rather than human settlements. Critical water sources such as Anna Laura Spring, Pinto Springs, and Slough Canyon Spring are noted throughout the terrain, alongside smaller named features like Marys Water. The drainage patterns of Bluebell Creek, Joe Hutch Creek, and Florence Creek illustrate the erosional forces that have shaped this portion of the Uinta Basin's edge, where the topography transitions through numerous smaller draws like Burnt Canyon and Papoose Canyon.
