About this map

Ferguson Desert occupies the northern reaches of this Millard County landscape, where the vast, arid basin meets the rising elevations of the Burbank Hills to the southwest. The geography is defined by its drainage patterns and water management in a desert environment, notably the Deadman Reservoir and the Cedar Pass Reservoir. These catchments, along with named drainages like Jensen Wash and North Juniper Wash, indicate the vital role of water capture for rangeland or local utility in this western Utah region.

Remote transportation routes including Pine Valley Rd and Cedar Pass Rd provide the primary access through this territory. Geological features such as the Red Ledges and the namesake Deadman Point serve as prominent landmarks for navigation across the open terrain. This survey provides a look at the intersection of natural desert topography and the sparse human infrastructure required to traverse it.
