2014 Map of Crater Island East

About this map

The Silver Island Mountains dominate the western portion of this Great Salt Lake Desert landscape, rising sharply from the surrounding flats. This 2014 survey captures a stark environment where the terrain is defined by the isolated massif of Crater Island and the transition into the Newfoundland Evaporation Basin. The lack of traditional settlements highlights the region's extreme geography, leaving only the Crater Island Rd as a primary conduit through the desert. Significant hydrological features like Miry Wash illustrate the intermittent water patterns that shape this arid basin. The map provides clear evidence of the complex township and range system, including t5n r16w and t4n r17w, which delineate this sparsely populated corner of Box Elder County.
