1971 Map of Pahvant Butte North

About this map

Pahvant Butte rises above the stark, alkaline landscape of Millard County, serving as the dominant geological landmark in this 1971 survey. The terrain is characterized by extensive Mud Depressions and broad Mud flats that reflect the ancient lakebed history of the region. Along the southwestern edge, the Clear Lake Waterfowl Management Area, also noted as Clwma, provides a managed habitat amidst the arid surroundings, supported by water sources like Mud Springs. A network of unpaved transit, including a labeled Jeep Trail, underscores the remote and undeveloped nature of the area during the early 1970s. Landmarks such as Knobby BM 4708 provide specific elevation points for researchers and surveyors tracking the topography of this unique Great Basin environment.
