2017 Map of Hogup Ridge South

About this map

Hogup Ridge dominates this northern Utah landscape, rising above the vast salt flats of the Great Salt Lake desert. This survey highlights the topographic isolation of the ridge, culminating in Hogup Point, which provides a vantage over the surrounding dry basins. A critical piece of industrial infrastructure, the Southern Pacific Causeway, cuts across the northern edge of the sheet, illustrating how transportation corridors were engineered to bridge this challenging environment. To the east, a feature known as The Threshold marks the transition between the ridge's base and the open expanse of the salt desert, where township boundaries like t6n r11w and t6n r10w delineate the surveyed grid across an otherwise trackless terrain.
