2023 Map of Saddle Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Pine Valley Mountain Wilderness dominates the northeastern reaches of this landscape, where high-elevation landmarks like Saddle Mtn and Burger Peak overlook a complex network of canyons and springs. The terrain drops sharply from these peaks into the Dixie National Forest, carved by the three forks of Cottonwood Creek and the deep recesses of Slide Canyon. To the southwest, the environment transitions toward the edge of the Mojave Desert, marked by the residential development of Diamond Valley. This map documents a distinct topographical shift from high alpine plateaus to desert benches. Numerous water sources, such as Maudsley Spring, Goat Spring, and Cougar Spring, are critical features in this arid environment, often connected by remote paths like the Blake Gubler Trl and the Carter Canyon Skyline. The survey also highlights various named knolls and benches, including Mahogany Knoll and Truman Bench, which illustrate the region's varied geological character.
