2023 Map of The Cap

About this map

Manti-La Sal National Forest defines the rugged high-elevation landscape of this 2023 survey in Emery County. The topography is dominated by massive flat-topped formations, most notably North Horn Mtn and South Horn Mtn, separated by the deep incision of Rock Canyon Creek. The high plateau contains specialized water features like Baseball Pond and Baseball Spring, which reflect the area's history of high-country grazing and resource management. To the east, the terrain drops significantly toward West Clawson Reservoir, revealing a complex system of drainage channels including Killpack Canyon and Jewkes Hollow. This modern data shows the persistent importance of water infrastructure in the arid West, seen in the Long Point Number 3 Reservoir and the network of named swales like Clay Banks Swale that direct seasonal runoff through the canyon systems.
