2021 Map of Black Rock South

About this map

The Continental Divide traverses this high-desert landscape in Sweetwater County, marking a fundamental hydrologic boundary in the American West. The terrain is characterized by a network of drainage systems and intermittent water sources, including the headwaters of Black Rock Cr and the seasonal waters of Ninemile Wash. Industrial activity and land management are evident in the south, where the Jim Bridger Project Evaporation Pond and Potash Wash sit near The Meadows. This arid region is navigated by a series of graded routes such as Superior Cutoff Rd and Bitter Creek Rd, which provide access to landmarks like Spring Butte and Black Rock. The presence of Radon Springs suggests the location of vital water points used by travelers and livestock in a territory defined by its complex topography and sparse, modern infrastructure.
