2012 Map of Red Desert SW

About this map

Delaney Rim dominates the central landscape of this section of the Red Desert, serving as a prominent geographical marker in this arid portion of Sweetwater County. The map details a network of unpaved access routes and county roads that navigate the complex drainage patterns of the high desert basin. Primary transit through this remote corridor is facilitated by Road 80 in the southwest and Co Rd-3323 in the northwest, while the Delaney Rim Rd traces the base of the prominent escarpment. The drainage network shown here illustrates the seasonal hydrography characteristic of the region, where numerous unnamed washes and draws flow from the higher elevations of the rim toward the basin floor.
