2023 Map of White Hills

About this map

Santa Clara and the western edge of St. George anchor this modern survey of Washington County, illustrating the intersection of suburban expansion and a desert landscape. The presence of the Santa Clara Saint-George Canal and several springs, including Stucki Spring and Cottonwood Spring, underscores the critical importance of water management in this arid region. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Beaver Dam Mountains Wilderness, where the Virgin River cuts through the terrain near Starvation Point. A dense network of recreation paths, such as the Bearclaw Poppy Trl and Zen Trl, reflects the contemporary transition of these hills from ranching and mining uses to active leisure and residential growth. Notable landmarks like Red Bluff and Bloomington Hill provide topographic markers between the valley floor and the high desert plateaus.
