2023 Map of Turtle Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Big Horn Mtn dominates the southern landscape of this Emery County quadrangle, where high plateaus and deep drainage systems define the high desert geography. The map traces the intricate physical relationship between the Big Horn Benches and the network of canyons that carve through the sedimentary layers of the region. To the north and east, the deep incision of Range Creek Canyon and Range Creek serves as a primary geographical anchor, with local drainages like Mitchs Canyon and Turtle Canyon feeding into the larger system. This terrain is characterized by its isolation and the naming of specific landmarks such as Rabbit Valley and Xmas Canyon, which suggest a history of seasonal use and topographic navigation. The map provides a detailed view of the natural watercourses, including Little Park Wash and Trail Canyon, illustrating how water has historically shaped the travel routes and usable land in this corner of the Utah wilderness.
