1969 Map of Hogup Ridge North

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Southern Pacific rail line cuts across the southern edge of this orthophotomap, marking a critical industrial corridor through a landscape dominated by the Great Salt Lake Desert. The topographic detail highlights the stark elevation changes at Hogup Ridge and Broom Mountain, which rise sharply above the expansive, low-lying Mud Flat. At the base of the ridge lies Hogup, a small point of activity situated near the Private (Lucin Cutoff) roadway. This 1969 survey uses an orthophotomosaic to show the intricate surface textures of the salt flats and the distinctive geography of The Fingerpoint, illustrating the isolation and specialized infrastructure required for transportation through this arid basin in northern Utah.
