2017 Map of Dugway Range NE

About this map

Dugway Range dominates this corner of the Great Basin, where the border between Tooele and Juab counties cuts through high desert terrain. The landscape is defined by a series of steep drainages and isolated peaks, notably Pyramid Peak and the prominent Dugway Ridge. Human presence is marked by a network of specialized roads and desert crossings such as the Simpson Springs-Callao Rd and the Dugway Cutoff Rd, which navigate the transitions between mountain passes and the level Dugway Valley. Water management in this arid environment is evidenced by Monument Reservoir and several seasonal drainages including Trailer Wash and Pismire Wash. The inclusion of the Buckhorn Canyon & Rainbow Mine Rd in the north suggests the region's historical connection to mineral exploration, while canyons like Fera Canyon and Shadscale Canyon provide distinct landmarks for geologists and backcountry researchers.
