1991 Map of Granite Mountain

About this map

Granite Mountain dominates this portion of the West Desert, a remote landscape of the Great Basin where the Confusion Range meets the Disappointment Hills. Mapping of this high-altitude terrain reveals a complex network of 4wd tracks weaving through township and range lines, particularly along the border of Juab Co and Millard Co. The topographic detail shows the stark isolation of this region at the start of the 1990s, recording the precise contours of the basins and ridges that define this uninhabited corner of Utah. Surveyed as a provisional map, it captures the raw geography of the high desert before modern infrastructure reached these interior ranges, making it an essential reference for understanding the physical boundaries and early access routes of the Juab-Millard county line.
