2020 Map of Delle

About this map

Delle serves as a lone point of interest along the modern transit corridor that slices through the high desert of Tooele County. This arid landscape is dominated by the Lakeside Mountains and prominent peaks like Black Mtn. The topography is defined by significant drainages such as Craner Canyon and Carter Canyon, which reveal the deep folds of the desert terrain. Historic transportation routes are visible across the valley floor, including the long stretch of the Western Pacific RR Rd and a network of specialized access paths like Skunk Ridge Rd and Poverty Point Rd. These names hint at the hard-won livestock and mineral heritage of the region, where roads like Old Nag Rd and Black Mountain Resource Rd were essential for navigating the complex slopes above the Great Salt Lake desert.
