1985 Map of Mountain Sheep Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Beaver Dam Mountains and the Virgin Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape at the border of Arizona and Utah. This 1985 provisional edition reveals the complex drainage systems of the Virgin River, which cuts through the dramatic corridor of The Narrows. Further south, the terrain rises toward Sheep Mountain and the towering Black Rock Mountain, where the namesake Mountain Sheep Spring provides a rare water source in this arid environment. The map details remote family-named locations such as Blakes Lambing Grounds and Sullivans Canyon, illustrating the land's traditional use for livestock. The varied topography of Migrants Cove and the Lime Hills suggests a geography shaped by isolation and the seasonal flow of Cedar Pockets Wash.
