2017 Map of Dripping Rock Spring

About this map

Hartt Cabin Draw and Hartt Cabin Spring define the lower reach of this landscape, marking a history of remote water access and seasonal habitation. This high-desert terrain is characterized by an extensive network of small-scale water management features, including Continental Reservoir Number 1, Horse Trap Reservoir, and Alkali Reservoir. These catchments suggest a land used primarily for livestock grazing and resource extraction, a theme reinforced by the presence of Dripping Rock Pit Number 2 and the Dripping Rock Reservoir. Topographic landmarks such as Courthouse Butte and West Flat Top Mtn provide essential orientation in a region of complex drainage patterns like South Barrel Springs Draw and Hangout Wash. The north-south boundary between Sweetwater and Carbon Counties bisects the map, while W Hangout Rd provides the primary transit corridor through the arid breaks.
