2023 Map of Salvation Creek

About this map

Capitol Reef National Park borders the southwestern corner of this desert landscape, where the terrain is defined by dramatic landforms like Factory Butte and the Little Black Mountains. The drainage network is shaped by numerous seasonal washes, including Salvation Creek, Temple Wash, and Carlyle Wash, which carve through the high-plateau geography of Emery County. Northward, the elevation rises toward Cedar Mtn and the broad expanse of Mussentuchit Flat. The map reveals a remote environment with sparse human infrastructure, primarily centered around the Lower Last Chance Loop and industrial markers such as Oil Well Bench. This area serves as a study in the arid geological formations of the Middle Desert, showcasing the erosion patterns and namesake slopes like the Moroni Slopes that characterize the eastern edge of the San Rafael Swell region.
