2020 Map of Badger Hole Spring

About this map

Curlew National Grassland dominates the northeastern portion of this topographic survey, marking a protected expanse of the eastern Great Basin. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of the Sublett Range, where deep drainages like Hay Canyon and North Canyon carve into the terrain. This area is critically tied to its water sources, with numerous named points of interest revolving around isolated water features such as Quaking Asp Spring, Salyer Spring, and Badger Hole Spring. These locations often served as vital landmarks for grazing and travel in a semi-arid region. In the east, The Meadows and The Meadows Divide suggest a shift toward slightly more hospitable ground near Meadow Brook Cr. Remote transit is facilitated by a sparse network of roads, including Holbrook Black Pine Rd and Cow Canyon Rd.
