About this map

The settlement of Watson anchors this high-desert portion of Tooele County during the early 1970s. This specific map, produced as a 7.5-minute orthophotomap, utilizes an aerial photography base to reveal the detailed surface textures of the terrain across the townships of T 2 S, T 3 S and T 3 S, T 4 S. Unlike traditional line maps, this photographic approach clearly distinguishes the desert scrub and the intricate drainage patterns of the Great Salt Lake Desert basin. The transition between the open flats and the more varied topography of the eastern ranges is precisely documented, providing a visual record of this remote area's topography before more modern desert land use changes. The grid of township and range lines, such as the boundary between R 11 W and R 10 W, provides the primary structural framework for navigating this sparsely populated landscape.
