1989 Map of Pine Valley Hardpan South

About this map

The Desert Experimental Range occupies the northern half of this high-desert basin, where federal land management and research took precedence during the late 20th century. Centered around Range Headquarters, the landscape is defined by the massive Pine Valley Hardpan and the Pine Valley Depression, features that indicate the arid, seasonal drainage patterns of this remote region. The map captures a transition across the Millard Co Beaver Co boundary, illustrating a land use geared toward large-scale ranching and ecological study. Human presence is sparse but strategic, marked by a network of water management features such as Desert Ranch Reservoir, Electric Fence Reservoir, and Cow Track Reservoir. These improvements, along with scattered Drill Holes and a Corral, highlight the infrastructure required for sustaining life and livestock in the Great Basin’s challenging environment.
