2010 Map of Keg Pass

About this map

Keg Mountain and the surrounding high desert terrain define this corner of Juab County, where the landscape transitions between prominent peaks and the broad expanse of Dugway Valley. This 2010 survey illustrates the sparse but critical water sources that have long dictated movement through this arid region, most notably Flint Spring and Keg Spring. The namesake Keg Pass serves as a primary corridor through the range, followed by Keg Pass Rd as it winds through the topography. On the eastern edge of the mountains, the Slow Elk Hills rise above the drainage of Dead Ox Creek. The map provides a clear picture of the remote backcountry infrastructure in the early 21st century, centered on these vital springs and the primitive road network like Flint Springs Rd.
