1983 Map of The Frying Pan

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Frying Pan and the surrounding high desert terrain along the Emery Co Wayne Co border are defined by water scarcity and complex drainage patterns in this early 1980s topography. The landscape is characterized by isolated water sources such as Last Chance Well, East Cedar Mountain Spring, and Corral Canyon Spring, which supported livestock and transit through this arid region. Significant efforts to manage the limited rainfall are visible through features like the Frying Pan Catchment and Moroni Slopes Catchment. Historical movement through the area is traced along the Carlyle Wash and various 4wd tracks that navigate around major landforms including East Cedar Mountain and the distinctively named Horse Heaven. The map details the transition between these high points and deep depressions like Segers Hole and Johns Hole, illustrating the geological character of the San Rafael Swell area.
