1983 Map of Big Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Hill Air Force Range occupies a significant portion of this desert terrain, where the boundary between Box Elder and Tooele counties cuts across the arid landscape. The map highlights the sharp contrast between the level expanse of the Mud Flat and the rising peaks of the Newfoundland Mountains, which dominate the eastern portion of the sheet. At the transition point between these elevations lies Big Pass, a notable geographic corridor through the ridge. Human activity is largely defined by military and aviation infrastructure, indicated by a remote Landing Strip positioned at the mountain base. This 1983 edition documents the area during a period of ongoing military utility and geological study, capturing the intersection of state-managed land and the natural barriers of the western Utah desert.
