About this map

Patmos Head and the adjacent Patmos Ridge form a high-altitude center for this Carbon County landscape, where the terrain is dominated by a complex network of canyons and high ridges. The map reveals an area defined by steep verticality, with named features such as Beef Slide Canyon and North Fork Horse Canyon cutting through the upland plateaus. To the west, the settlement of East Carbon sits at the base of these heights, marking the transition from the developed valley floor to the high wilderness.

Transport and access are traced through narrow corridors like Range Creek Rd and Patmos Head Rd, which follow the natural contours of the mountain. Water sources are sparse but critical, represented by remote locations such as North Willow Spring and Dalton Spring. The topography between Cottonwood Ridge and Range Valley Mtn illustrates the high-country drainage patterns of the Range Cr watershed as it appeared in recent years.
