2015 Map of Kappes Canyon

About this map

Quaking Asp Mtn and Antelope Butte dominate the high-elevation landscape of this 2015 survey of Sweetwater County. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages and named depressions, including Kappes Canyon, Dugway Canyon, and Walkie Canyon, which reveal the complex erosion patterns in the South Baxter Basin. Water sources are critical but scarce in this arid environment, marked by Ninemile Spring and Mullen Camp Spring. Human infrastructure is sparse, characterized by utility corridors like Communication Cables and specialized access routes such as Radar Tower Rd. The presence of Coal Mine Canyon suggests the industrial potential of the underlying geology, while local thoroughfares like Kappes Canyon Rd and CR-31 provide the primary links across the rugged sagebrush-steppe geography.
