About this map

Molen Reef and the Coal Cliffs dominate this portion of the Emery County landscape, where the high desert terrain is punctuated by an extensive system of water management features. The distribution of sites like Rochester Reservoir, Lone Tree Reservoir, and Sand Bench Reservoir reflects the critical importance of water storage in this arid region. Locally named landmarks such as John McDonald Hole and Hiram Corry Spring provide genealogical points of interest, suggesting early ranching or homesteading history in the area. Transportation in this territory relies on established routes like Co RD 803 and Dog Hollow Rd, which navigate the complex topography defined by Short Canyon and Dog Hollow. From the heights of Lookout Point down to the South Salt Wash, the map documents a geography where every spring and seep, such as Jensen Seep, is a vital resource.
