2012 Map of Walcott

About this map

Walcott and Edson anchor this high-plains landscape in Carbon County, where the infrastructure of water management and transportation defines the local geography. The drainage of Saint Marys Cr winds through the central terrain, supported by the Saint Marys Ditch and the Point of Rocks Reservoir to the west. This 2012 survey illustrates how the high-desert environment is shaped by natural springs and strategic water storage, evidenced by Coyote Springs and Sulphur Spring appearing along the eastern corridor. Landforms like Edson Ridge and Saint Marys Hill provide significant vertical relief, while the Coyote Canyon creates a distinct break in the eastern plateau. The convergence of modern roadways and historic water routes around the southern settlement of Walcott highlights its role as a regional transit point.
