2017 Map of Maxon Ranch

About this map

Maxon Ranch serves as a primary human landmark in this high-desert landscape of Sweetwater County, where water sources dictate the patterns of movement and habitation. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation shifts and seasonal drainages, including Dry Hollow and the arid expanse of Ramsay Desert. Vital water points like Maggie Springs, Poison Spring, and Camp Creek Springs are essential nodes in an environment otherwise dominated by the prominent rise of Mellor Mtn. A network of ranch and pipeline roads, such as Ramsey Ranch Rd and Clay Basin Pipeline Rd, provides access across the complex topography of the Sage Cr and Little Bitter Cr basins, reflecting the area's dual character of livestock grazing and modern utility infrastructure.
