2017 Map of Headlight Mountain

About this map

Headlight Mountain dominates this portion of the Cricket Mountains in Millard County, representing a landscape defined by Great Basin topography and intermittent drainage systems. In the northern reaches of this 2017 survey, the shoreline of Sevier Lake borders the high desert terrain. The area is characterized by a series of north-south trending valleys and passes, including Cedar Valley, Shorts Valley, and Red Valley, which provide natural corridors through the peaks. This survey preserves local naming conventions for various geographical features, such as Dorthy Draw, Wingy Cove, and Cys Pass, as well as identifying topographic landmarks like Monument Point and the Red Hills. The presence of Mine Canyon suggests a history of resource exploration in these highlands, while established routes like Headlight Pass and Lone Cedar Pass indicate the historical importance of mountain transit in this arid region.
