2017 Map of Black Rock South

About this map

The Continental Divide traverses this high-altitude landscape in Sweetwater County, marking the hydraulic backbone of the region. This 2017 survey illustrates a stark, arid environment dominated by drainage patterns like Potash Wash and Ninemile Wash, which flow toward the Jim Bridger Project Evaporation Pond in the southern portion of the quadrangle. Significant elevation markers include Spring Butte and the landmark Black Rock, providing critical orientation in a territory defined by its topographic relief rather than dense settlement. The road network, including the Superior Cutoff Rd and Nine Mile Rd, reflects the area's role in supporting industrial or resource-based transport. Natural water features like Rador Springs and Black Rock Cr appear as vital landmarks within this high-desert terrain near The Meadows.
