2022 Map of Ruby Lee Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

The Book Cliffs dominate the northern landscape of this region where the high desert meets the irrigated agriculture of the Grand Valley. Below the prominent escarpment, a complex network of recreational paths and access roads, including the Sarlacc Trl and Skywalker Trl, winds through the breaks and ridges. The hydrology of the area is defined by the drainage of Big Salt Wash and Lipan Wash, which carry seasonal runoff toward the valley floor. Near the southern edge, the Government Highline Canal represents a critical piece of regional infrastructure, providing the water necessary to sustain the valley's orchards and farms. Small-scale water storage like the Ruby Lee Reservoir tucked against the hills highlights the persistent effort to manage water in this arid climate. This 2022 survey captures the modern character of the area, where historical mining access like the Lane Mine Trl has evolved into a specialized landscape for outdoor recreation.
