2014 Map of Eskdale

About this map

Eskdale sits as a lonely outpost in the vast arid landscape of western Millard County, positioned near the border of the Ferguson Desert and the rising slopes of the Conger Range. The community is defined by its isolation and a network of desert routes including Eskdale Rd, Eskdale Cutoff Rd, and Knoll Springs Rd, which provide essential connections across the basin. The ephemeral drainage of Baker Cr cuts through the northern sections of the map, illustrating the critical role of scarce water sources in this high-desert environment. Crossing the lower third of the quadrangle, Us-50 serves as the primary artery for travel through this sparsely populated region, where the grid of the Public Land Survey System maintains order across the open desert flats.
