2014 Map of Parowan Gap

About this map

Coal Canyon Parowan Gap serves as a primary geographic corridor in this corner of Iron County, where the desert landscape transitions toward the Parowan Valley. The topography is defined by the sharp constriction of The Narrows and the Little Gap, providing a clear look at the natural passes that dictated early travel routes across the Red Hills. Strategic water sources like Aster Spring and Dipping Vat Spring appear at the base of the highlands, marking critical stops for both wildlife and travelers in an arid environment. The map also traces modern and legacy paths, such as the Jackrabbit Wash Trl and the Foothills Route Red Hills, which navigate the complex terrain around Whitney Canyon and Long Hill.
