2023 Map of Needle Point

About this map

Sevier Lake dominates the eastern half of this Millard County landscape, representing a terminal basin where water and salt gather in the Utah desert. The western shoreline is defined by the sharp topographical rise of Needle Point, a prominent landform that juts toward the lake bed. This area's hydrology is characterized by small-scale water management features typical of arid range lands, including Madsen Reservoir and Needle Reservoir to the north, along with the Needle Hardpan Reservoir situated just south of the point. The terrain to the northwest is punctuated by the Coyote Knolls, offering a localized break in the otherwise steady descent toward the playa. This map illustrates the intersection of natural salt-lake geography and the essential livestock water infrastructure of the Great Basin.
