2011 Map of Hogup Bar

About this map

Sinks of Dove Creek defines the northern hydrology of this remote desert landscape, where water from Dove Creek periodically collects and disappears into the arid terrain. The map documents a sparsely populated corner of Box Elder County, characterized by the dramatic rise of the Hogup Mountains in the southeast and the namesake Hogup Bar landform to the northeast. Transportation across this basin relies on a network of unpaved routes, primarily labeled as County Rd, along with specifically named tracks like Board Ranch Rd and Hogup Mountain Rd. This 2011 survey reveals an environment where physical geography and hydrology dictate the limited human footprint, centered around seasonal water features and ranching access roads.
