2014 Map of Pigeon Mountain

About this map

Pigeon stands as a focal point in this high desert landscape of western Box Elder County, situated near the northern reach of the Little Pigeon Mountains. The terrain is defined by the prominent rise of Pigeon Mtn and the seasonal drainage of Grouse Cr, which threads through the arid basins. A unique technical footprint is visible in the southwestern quadrant, where Astronomical Observation Tunnels are noted, reflecting the remote region's utility for specialized scientific or observational work. Transport in this isolated area is facilitated by a network of rural routes including Little Pigeon Rd and the Pigeon Mountain Loop, which provide access to the Lucin Airport in the north. The map documents a landscape where modern infrastructure like the airfield and observation tunnels meet traditional land divisions across township boundaries like t7n r17w.
