About this map

The Escalante Desert dominates this southwestern Utah landscape, where the boundary between Millard Co and Beaver Co cuts through arid terrain. To the east, the Beaver River winds through the Beaver Bottoms, providing a critical water source in an otherwise parched environment. The topography is defined by significant elevations such as Lime Mtn and the Badger Knolls, which overlook the expansive desert floor.

Water remains the most vital resource for any explorer or researcher of this region, evidenced by a series of named water sources along the western slopes. These include Douglas Spring, Bardsley Spring, Smith Spring, and the uniquely named Brownfield Tunnel Spring near Brownfield Canyon. Human infrastructure is sparse but notable, primarily represented by the north-south transit of Energy Corridor Rd, indicating the modern utility of this remote corridor.
