2020 Map of Potters Creek

About this map

Grouse Creek Mountains dominate this high-altitude terrain, where steep drainages and canyons carve into the landscape. This 2020 survey documents a network of seasonal watercourses including Potters Cr, Cottonwood Cr, and Birch Cr that flow eastward from the peaks toward the Dry Basin. The map shows the importance of water management and livestock grazing in this arid region, highlighted by named landmarks like Buck Pasture and vital water sources such as Rosebud Spring and Sickle Spring. Human presence is defined by a remote ranching infrastructure, with Meadow Springs Ranch Rd and Rosebud Spring Rd providing access to the high basins and canyons. The topography around Red Butte and Ingham Pass illustrates the challenging passage through this part of Box Elder County.
