2017 Map of Lynndyl NW

About this map

Sand Mtn and the surrounding high desert terrain define this corner of Juab County, captured in detail during a 2017 survey. The landscape is characterized by its dramatic shifts in elevation, where the drainage of Cherry Creek cuts through the northwest while the massive dunes of the Sand Hills dominate the southern reach. The map reveals a network of primitive and secondary tracks essential for local navigation, including Windmill Rd, Telephone Rd, and Oscarthorpe Rd. This specific grid of township and range lines, such as t13s r5w, reflects the enduring legacy of the Public Land Survey System in organizing this arid landscape. The naming of routes like Backside Sand Mountain Rd and Left Fork Sand Mountain Rd highlights the topographical prominence of the mountain as a central landmark for both travel and geographic orientation in the region.
