1991 Map of Matlin

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

The Matlin Mountains dominate the northern terrain of this remote portion of Box Elder County, where the high ridges of the range give way to the broad, arid expanse of the Matlin Basin. This landscape is defined by its isolation and the critical importance of water management for grazing and survival in the Great Basin. Small-scale infrastructure like Horse Mountain Reservoir, a lone Well, and a Corral suggest the area's continued use for livestock despite the lack of permanent residential density. The settlement of Matlin sits near the western edge of the basin, serving as a landmark in a territory characterized by significant elevation changes, from the heights of Coyote Hill to the seasonal drainage of Dove Creek. Further south, the prominent rise of Sheep Mtn anchors the horizon, illustrating the stark topographical transitions of the Utah desert.
