2023 Map of Coyote Springs

About this map

Simpson Mountains dominate the eastern landscape of this Tooele and Juab County borderland, where the terrain drops into the wide expanse of the Old River Bed. This relic of a prehistoric waterway provides a striking geological anchor for the region, flanked by features like White Marl Bluff and The Shutoff. The map documents a network of primitive desert routes, including the Simpson Springs-Callao Rd and The Shutoff Rd, which thread through a series of washes and canyons. Scattered water sources, critical for any historical activity in this arid basin, are mapped at Coyote Springs, Burnt Springs, and Sixmile Spring. The southern portion of the quadrangle transitions into the Slow Elk Hills, where the landscape is marked by landmarks such as Warehouse Rock and Cup Butte, illustrating the stark, high-desert character of the Utah Great Basin.
