2017 Map of Pinto

About this map

Pinto and the nearby Mountain Meadow lie at the heart of this high-elevation landscape in southern Utah. The map traces the historic path of the Spanish Trl as it winds toward the northwest corner near the Escalante Valley. Genealogists and historians will find significant detail in the presence of the Pinto Cem and Hamblin Cem, alongside landmarks like the Death Valley Party Monument in Holt Canyon. Much of the central terrain is occupied by the protected lands of the Dixie National Forest, dominated by the prominent Cove Mtn. The hydrology of the area is defined by numerous seasonal drainages and essential water sources, including Pinto Cr, Spring Cr, and several named springs such as Hyatt Spring and Cove Spring, which supported early settlement and transit in this arid region.
