2017 Map of Red Desert
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The Continental Divide crests through the southern reaches of this high-altitude landscape, dictating the flow of water across a terrain defined by sparse moisture and significant relief. Irrigation efforts in this arid environment are visible through the paths of Threemile Ditch and Eightmile Ditch, which cut across the high plains north of the Wamsutter Rim. The small settlement of Red Desert serves as a lone outpost along the transport corridor, which includes the I-80 SVC RD and the parallel path of the interstate.
