2014 Map of Patmos Head

About this map

Upper Sunnyside and the high desert canyons of Carbon County define this modern topographic survey. The landscape is a complex network of high ridges and deep drainages, including Cottonwood Ridge, Bishop Ridge, and the prominent Range Valley Mtn. Access to these upland areas is traced through a series of backcountry routes such as Bishop Ridge Rd and Pole Canyon Rd, which navigate between features like Bear Canyon and Whitmore Canyon. The map identifies localized seasonal water sources and temporary settlements essential for land management, notably Willow Spring Cow Camp and several springs including Dalton Spring and South Willow Spring. To the south, the terrain rises to the peak of Patmos Head, while the eastern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by the steep descents into Beef Slide Canyon and Range Creek Canyon. The layout of the Ut-123 highway near the western edge illustrates the primary corridor connecting this high-elevation plateau to the broader region.
