About this map

Smoky Mountain dominates the high desert terrain of southern Utah, where modern Smoky Mtn Rd follows the winding paths used by ranchers and surveyors for generations. The landscape is defined by its dramatic elevation changes, notably at Kelly Grade, where the road descends through the strata toward the boundaries of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.

Creeks such as Last Chance Creek and Warm Creek cut through the canyons, providing vital water sources in an otherwise arid environment. Along the southern edge, infrastructure like Sit Down Bench Road and Alstrom Point Road connects the high plateaus of the Burning Hills to the drainage of Smoky Hollow. This survey captures the convergence of ancient geology and modern access routes, preserving the locations of springs such as Berry Springs that remain essential landmarks in the Kane County wilderness.
