2017 Map of Davis Knolls

About this map

Skull Valley defines the western half of this Tooele County landscape, where the residential grid of Dugway transitions into the expansive basins of the Great Basin desert. The eastern portion is dominated by the prominent elevation of the Davis Knolls, while the southern terrain rises toward Round Top and Davis Mtn. Transportation in this arid region relies on a network of established routes such as Skull Valley Rd and Simpson Springs Rd, which skirt the edges of the high ground. Water resources are scarce, marked only by ephemeral features like Dry Cr and the man-made Valley Reservoir, reflecting the desert's character and the strategic importance of managed water for the nearby settlement.
