2011 Map of Slickrock Bench

About this map

Slickrock Bench and its surrounding drainages define this portion of Kane County, Utah, where a network of ephemeral watercourses and deep draws carve through the high desert. In this 2011 survey, the infrastructure is limited to Cottonwood Canyon Rd and a few unpaved routes like Co Rd, which provide access to the high ground at Upper Slickrock and Lower Slickrock. The map reveals a landscape defined by water management and natural catchments, from the Round Valley Seep to Rock Springs. Topographical features such as Jodey Point and Johnson Hole suggest a land historically navigated by ranchers and outdoorsmen. The intricate drainage patterns of Hackberry Creek and Death Valley Draw illustrate the erosive forces that shape the terrain, while areas like Rush Beds indicate localized ecological variations in an otherwise arid environment.
