2017 Map of Sage Creek

About this map

Sage Creek and its many tributaries define this high-elevation corner of Rich County, where a network of springs and canyons supports the area's agricultural water needs. The hydrology is particularly complex near Duck Creek Red Spring Duck Cr, illustrating how vital water resources are managed across the undulating terrain. Prominent landmarks like Hogback Ridge and Red Knoll provide orientation within the vast open space, while numerous named water sources such as Rabbit Spring, Rich Spring, and Upper Sage Creek Spring dot the landscape. The presence of the Sage Cr Canal in the southeast corner marks the transition from natural drainage to engineered irrigation, a common feature in Utah's rural land use. The map also traces the winding paths of Sixmile Cr and N Fork Sage Cr through deep draws like Mahogany Canyon and Pine Canyon.
