2023 Map of Woodside

About this map

Woodside is the central feature of this Emery County landscape, situated along the banks of the Price River. This small settlement, a historic stop for travelers in eastern Utah, is anchored by the Woodside Cem located just to the northwest. The terrain is defined by the striking rise of the Book Cliffs which dominate the eastern half of the map, creating a dramatic vertical transition from the river valley. Water management in this arid environment is evidenced by the Kiahitipes Reservoir and drainage systems like Grassy Wash. Transport through this corridor relies on local routes such as Co Rd 128, which provides access through the high-desert scrub and toward the base of the cliffs. The map illustrates a sparse but persistent human presence in a territory largely shaped by the erosive forces of the river and the massive geological formations of the cliffs.
