2010 Map of Furner Ridge

About this map

Furner Valley and the surrounding high desert terrain dominate this USGS survey of Juab County, Utah. The landscape is defined by the sharp rise of the East Tintic Mountains to the west and the prominent spine of Furner Ridge to the east. Transportation through this arid corridor centers on Furner Pass, where historical routes like the Jericho Callao Rd and Rte 1612 navigate the gaps between the heights. Water management is critical in this environment, evidenced by several scattered catchments including Brough Reservoir, Dog Valley Reservoir, and the descriptively named Hole in Rock Reservoir. Features like Tidwell Spring and Furner Creek indicate the rare natural water sources that historically supported ranching or transit in this rugged section of the Great Basin.
