2023 Map of Thompson Point

About this map

The Vermilion Cliffs and Shinarump Cliffs define the dramatic verticality of this landscape, where the town of Kanab sits at the base of intricate canyon systems. This 2023 survey documents a high-desert environment shaped by water, featuring numerous springs such as Ram Spring and Sheep Springs that have historically sustained life in an arid climate. To the northeast, the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument protects the geological transition into Johnson Canyon, where the Johnson Cem stands as a quiet marker of early settlement history. The transport network reflects the terrain, with roads like Old US Hwy 89 following the natural contours below the towering Thompson Point. From the drainage of Hog Canyon to the wide expanse of Muggins Flat, the map reveals how geography dictates the placement of modern residential streets and rural infrastructure in southern Utah.
