About this map

Dixie National Forest land defines this southwestern Utah landscape, where prominent summits like Mt Escalante and Haystack Mtn overlook a complex system of drainage basins. The area's topography is marked by deep cuts such as Broad Hollow, Sevy Hollow, and Horse Canyon, which descend from the high elevations towards the plains. A network of dry washes and draws, including White Rocks Wash, Nephi Draw, and Telegraph Draw, indicates the seasonal hydrology typical of this arid region.

Transportation through this high-desert terrain is represented by the Old Modena Rd in the northeastern corner, tracing a path through the foothills. The map provides a clear look at the township and range divisions, such as t35s r19w and t36s r18w, which organize the remote interior of Iron County. Researchers can use these coordinates and landmarks to locate specific land tracts and natural features within the federal forest boundaries.
