2014 Map of Russian Knoll

About this map

Board Ranch stands as a central point of reference in this high-desert landscape of Box Elder County, where ranching infrastructure meets the historic path of the West. The terrain is defined by the Matlin Mountains to the south and the prominent elevation of Baker Mtn to the east, with seasonal water managed through features like Trail Pass Reservoir and Baker Hills Reservoir. A network of unpaved corridors including Board Ranch Rd and Russian Knoll Rd provides access through the sagebrush and scrub, while Emigrant Trail Rd follows the historical corridor used by travelers across the Great Basin. The drainage of Dove Cr and Cotton Cr carves through the foothills, illustrating the critical relationship between topography and water in this arid region of northern Utah.
