2011 Map of Slate Jack Canyon

About this map

Goshen Valley and Juab Valley are separated by the significant north-south spine of Long Ridge, a landscape defined by its network of drainages and isolated springs. The terrain is deeply incised by features like Slate Jack Canyon and the Right Fork Old Canyon, which carve through the central high ground. Along the eastern edge, the presence of the Swasey Family Cemetery near the base of the ridge offers a specific point of interest for genealogists and local historians, while Goshen Canyon Rd provides a primary transit link between the lowlands. Water is a critical element of this arid environment, represented by the Mona Reservoir in the northeast and intermittent sources such as Lunt-Lattimer Spring and Cottonwood Spring, which likely served as vital markers for early settlers and ranchers in the region.
