2017 Map of P R Spring

About this map

P R Spring serves as a critical water source in the high desert environment on the boundary of Uintah and Grand Counties. The landscape is defined by a series of prominent high-altitude plateaus and drainage systems, including the extensive Seep Ridge, Monument Ridge, and Pope Well Ridge. This 2017 survey details the complex network of canyons that carve through the Book Cliffs, with Black Horse Canyon and Whetrock Canyon feeding into larger systems. The presence of routes like Bookcliff Ridge Rd and Main Canyon Rd highlights the traditional transport corridors used for land management and resource access in this part of the Uinta Basin. Notable landmarks such as Mexico Point and Paradise Hill provide significant navigational aids across the dissected terrain, illustrating the geographic isolation and the naming conventions of early settlers and ranchers in the region.
