About this map

Newfoundland Evaporation Basin dominates the southern landscape of this Box Elder County survey, illustrating the industrial and topographical complexity of Utah's West Desert. The map captures a moment when desert infrastructure supported both heavy transit and extractive activity, evidenced by the prominent Lucin Cutoff and several Borrow Pits near the mountain foothills. The terrain transitions from the high elevations of the Hogup Mountains and Broom Mountain down into expansive flats marked simply as Mud. Human presence in this arid environment is localized around transportation and water management, featuring a remote Landing Strip, a designated Private road, and the isolated Meadow Spring. Notably, the map includes the Rio Buenaventura, a label referencing the historically mythical river that was once thought to connect the Great Basin to the Pacific Ocean, here associated with modern water works near the Canal.
