2020 Map of Pintura

About this map

Hurricane Cliffs dominate the eastern landscape of this Washington County survey, forming a dramatic geological backdrop for the settlements of Pintura and Anderson Junction. The map documents a corridor of transit and heritage, where Old US Hwy 91 and modern thoroughfares navigate the terrain between Dixie National Forest and the rising plateaus. Genealogists will find the Pintura Cem and Anderson Family Cem clearly marked, alongside the historical site of Silver Reef, a 19th-century mining town known for its unique silver-in-sandstone deposits. The hydrology of the region is well-defined by Ash Creek, Wet Sandy, and the Toquerville Springs, illustrating how water sources influenced early ranching and settlement patterns. Notable landmarks like the Crystal Springs Ranch Airport and the Silver Rim Trail reflect the modern utility of this varied landscape.
