2014 Map of Stoddard Mountain

About this map

Dixie National Forest defines the rugged geography of this southwestern Utah landscape, where the Harmony Mountains and Pine Valley Mountains converge. The terrain is a complex network of high ridges and deep drainages, including the prominent Stoddard Mtn and Granite Mtn. Water sources are critical identifiers in this environment, ranging from the seasonally variable Dry Lake to numerous named springs such as Crystal Springs, Bumblebee Spring, and Hidden Spring. The map documents the boundary between Iron and Washington counties, showing how early transit corridors like Old State Hwy 144 and Ut-56 navigated the difficult topography. Remote basins like Bumblebee Canyon and Kelsey Mare Hollow highlight the localized naming traditions of the high desert and mountain transition.
