About this map

Grand Gulch Plateau dominates this high-elevation landscape, where the terrain is defined by an intricate network of deep canyons and prominent mesas. The 2014 survey documents a region where geological formations are the primary landmarks, notably Angel Arch and Cathedral Arch within the northern reaches of the Manti-LaSal National Forest. Human infrastructure is largely limited to Ut-95 and remote desert tracks like Arch Canyon Rd and Owl Creek Rd.

Water sources are scarce but significant, appearing as isolated points such as Posey Spring and Pine Spring. The presence of Salvation Knoll and Hells Half Acre reflects the historical naming of landmarks by early travelers and surveyors navigating the rugged basins. From Texas Flat to the broad expanse of Cyclone Flat, the map reveals a wilderness shaped by drainage systems like Fish Cr and Mule Canyon, showcasing the dramatic erosional geography of southeastern Utah.
