2011 Map of Sally Mountain

About this map

Hill Air Force Base land occupies a significant portion of this high desert landscape, highlighting the military's footprint in Box Elder County. The remote character of the area is anchored by the small settlement of Oasis, positioned between the broad expanse of Puddle Valley and the rising elevations of the Lakeside Mountains. A network of unpaved roads and tracks crisscrosses the flats, converging near several landing strips and specialized facilities that reflect the region's mid-century and modern role in aerospace and defense testing. Topographical features like Sally Mountain and the natural corridor of Wrathall Pass break the flat basin floor, offering critical geographic context for those studying the intersection of public land, military reservations, and the sparsely populated interior of northern Utah.
