About this map

The Wah Wah Mountains and the Tunnel Spring Mountains converge in this arid section of Millard County, creating a complex corridor of high-desert terrain. Central to the landscape is Middle Mtn, which sits above the entrance to Pine Pass, a natural crossing point leading into the broader Pine Valley. This area is characterized by vast drainage patterns and sparse water sources, most notably the Pine Pass Reservoir, which serves as a vital catchment in the shadow of the Little Rough Range.

Transport through this isolated region is defined by the intersection of Pine Valley Rd and Crystal Peak Rd, routes that skirt the edges of the Ferguson Desert. The map reveals the relationship between these geographic landmarks and the township and range survey lines, illustrating how the natural topography of Cat Knoll and the surrounding peaks dictated the placement of these early western thoroughfares.
