1971 Map of Desert Mtn Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Desert Mountain dominates the southwestern portion of this Utah landscape, where a network of primitive transportation routes defines the arid terrain. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the map reveals a land utilized for localized mining and ranching operations, marked by several Prospect sites and a series of Borrow Pit excavations. Water management is critical in this environment, evidenced by the Coyote Knoll Reservoir and the Cow Hollow Well, which provide vital points of reference along the dry washes. Drainage patterns such as South Pine Wash and Erickson Wash carve through the basin floor between the prominent rises of the Allison Knolls and the central Desert Mtn Pass. The prevalence of a Jeep Trail network throughout the quadrangle underscores the isolation of this sector of Juab County during this era.
