2010 Map of Four J Rim

About this map

Pine Mountain dominates the southwestern portion of this high-desert landscape in Sweetwater County, where the Four J Rim drops away into the expansive Four J Basin. The region's drainage pattern is defined by the headwaters of Salt Wells Creek and the meandering path of the North Fork Vermillion Creek, punctuated by vital water sources like Big Spring and Goat Spring. Human activity is sparse but telling, marked by the presence of the Pine Mountain Area Mine and historical land markers such as Wallace Cabin and the Pine Claim. A network of Bureau of Land Management routes, including BLM Road 4413 and BLM Road 4414, provide access across the arid terrain through features like Scrivner Canyon and toward the secluded Pine Lake.
