About this map

Mountain Spring Peak stands as the high point of this Iron County landscape where the Wah Wah Mountains meet the northern edge of the Escalante Desert. The terrain is defined by dramatic ridgelines including Broken Ridge and the transition through Herd Pass, creating a complex network of drainage basins. Water sources are critical identifiers in this arid environment, marked by sites such as Mountain Spring, Jensen Spring, Fourmile Spring, and Rosenberg Spring.

Transportation through the region follows established paths like Pine Valley Rd and the Prout Spring 4 Mile Cutoff, which connect the elevated peaks to the desert floor. To the south, Lookout Knoll overlooks the wide expanse of the Mountain Spring Wash and Fourmile Wash. This survey provides a precise look at the drainage patterns of Bull Spring Wash and Prout Wash, documenting the intersection of topography and hydrology in southwestern Utah.
