2023 Map of Red Creek Reservoir

About this map

Dixie National Forest defines the high-altitude landscape of this area on the Iron and Garfield county line. The drainage of Red Creek and its tributaries, such as Haycock Creek and Skoots Creek, dictates the movement across the plateau, where numerous trails and primitive roads connect isolated water sources like Mud Springs and Cove Spring. The concentration of small water bodies, including Foster Reservoir, Robinson Reservoir, and Horse Lake, suggests a landscape managed for livestock or local water storage within the high mountain valleys. Notable elevation points like Horse Valley Peak and the Twin Peaks overlook a network of deep-cut drainages, including Water Canyon and Dry Canyon. A sophisticated trail system, including the Markagunt Plateau Trl and the Sandy-Caddy Creek Loop Trl, provides the primary access through the Forks Valley and Horse Valley areas.
