2020 Map of Mountain Home Pass

About this map

Mountain Home Pass serves as a critical geographic marker within the Mountain Home Range along the border of Millard and Beaver Counties. This 2020 survey highlights a desert landscape defined by its essential water sources, including Mountain Home Spring, Sand Spring, and Cobb Spring. The presence of these named springs suggests the historical importance of water management in this arid Utah corridor. To the southeast, the topography becomes more pronounced near The Needles and McCune Pass, where drainage patterns like Cottonwood Wash carve through the terrain. The map also records several other minor water points such as Tub Spring, Cherry Spring, Victor Spring, and Forked Spring, illustrating the sparse but vital network of resources that dictated movement and land use across this high-elevation region.
