2020 Map of Desert Peak

About this map

Desert Peak stands as the central landmark of this isolated topographic profile in Box Elder County. The terrain is defined by the sharp vertical relief of the Newfoundland Mountains, a range that rises abruptly from the surrounding desert floor. This 2020 survey details the complex drainage patterns and erosion-formed features that characterize this arid landscape, including the prominent Trail Canyon and Dells Canyon. To the north, the elevation shifts into Sleigh Canyon and Corral Hollow, revealing the varied natural topography of the Great Basin. The map is a precise record of public land boundaries and physical geography in a region where natural features dictate the flow of movement across the high desert.
