About this map

Wolverine Petrified Wood Natural Area occupies the central canyonlands of this 1980s Garfield County survey, revealing a landscape defined by deep drainages and prominent geological benches. The drainage network of Death Hollow, Wolverine Creek, and Silver Falls Creek carves through the sandstone, highlighting the erosion patterns typical of the region. This provisional edition, based on 1981 photography, captures the intricate topography of the Circle Cliffs and the elevated platform of Pioneer Mesa in the east. High points like the Studhorse Peaks overlook the expansive King Bench Circle Cliffs to the west. The map records the remote interior of the county before modern digital mapping, focusing on named terrain features like White Canyon and Horse Canyon that have long served as landmarks for those navigating this portion of the Utah desert.
