2017 Map of Salazar Butte

About this map

Salazar Butte and the pronounced Willow Creek Rim define this arid landscape in Sweetwater County. The 2017 survey details a network of vital water management features essential for land use in this high desert environment, including Willow Reservoir and Salazar Reservoir. These catchments, along with drainages like Shallow Creek, W Br Willow Cr, and E Br Willow Cr, show how seasonal water is channeled through the terrain. The presence of BLM RD 4411 indicates the infrastructure supporting public land management and access. This map illustrates the intersection of natural topography and human intervention in the Great Divide Basin region, where livestock grazing and resource management rely on these scattered water sources and primitive road networks.
