2021 Map of Desert Springs

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The high desert of Sweetwater County is defined here by the path of the Continental Divide, which winds through a landscape of intermittent drainage basins and cattle country. This 2021 topographic record of the Red Desert region highlights the sparse but critical infrastructure that supports local energy and ranching interests, particularly around the eponymous Desert Springs. The map documents a network of named thoroughfares including Madison Dr, Table Rock Rd, and Patrick Draw Rd, providing essential passage through the broad basins of Smiley Draw and Patrick Draw. The arrangement of these roads alongside the traditional township and range grid reflects the ongoing human effort to manage this vast, water-scarce territory while maintaining its character as a remote corridor between distant mountain ranges.
