2017 Map of Indian Peaks

About this map

Indian Peaks anchor the southern reaches of the Simpson Mountains in this high-desert portion of Tooele County. The landscape is defined by its arid drainage systems, including Government Cr and Lee Cr, which descend toward the broad expanse of Skull Valley. While the lower elevations are marked by the long stretch of Simpson Springs Rd, the eastern edge rises into the protected timberlands of the Wasatch National Forest. Water sources are sparse but critical in this terrain, evidenced by the location of Winter Springs and Toms Spring. These features, alongside named landmarks like Davis Mtn and Lee Canyon, illustrate the rugged geography of the eastern Great Basin before it gives way to the salt flats. Numerous survey benchmarks and access trails such as Simpson Mountain Access T Rd indicate the area's use for resource management and backcountry navigation.
