About this map

The East Fork Virgin River carves through the dramatic geology of Kane County, defining a landscape of deep canyons and prominent plateaus. High above the river valley, the White Cliffs provide a striking visual boundary across the terrain. Human presence is concentrated near the northern edge of the map, where the L D Ranch Airport is situated along the N Fork County Hwy, serving as a remote point of access.

The central portion of this 2010 survey is dominated by The Barracks, a rugged stretch of canyon country where Rock Canyon and Elephant Cove feed into the river system. Further north, the landscape transitions into open spaces such as Poverty Flat, flanked by the drainage of Poverty Wash and Mineral Gulch. This map provides a detailed view of the complex hydrology and topography typical of the high desert, from Indian Knoll to the winding course of Meadow Creek.
