2020 Map of Onaqui Mountains South

About this map

The Onaqui Mountains form a rugged backbone through this section of Tooele County, where steep drainage systems like Skull Faust Canyon and East Faust Canyon define the landscape. Water sources remain critical features in this arid environment, marked by the presence of Hellhole Spring and Rock Canyon Spring. To the west, the distinctive Davis Knolls rise near the floor of Rush Valley, while Little Mtn anchors the southern terrain. This 2020 survey records a network of utilitarian infrastructure, including the Pony Express Rd, which traces a historic corridor across the southern expanse, alongside modern routes like Aqueduct Rd, Pipeline Rd, and Waterline Rd, reflecting the ongoing human management of these high-desert canyons.
