2017 Map of Sand Pass

About this map

Fish Springs Range dominates the eastern landscape of this Millard and Juab County borderland, where the high terrain abruptly gives way to the open expanses of the Tule Valley and Fish Springs Flat. The map centers on the namesake Sand Pass, a natural corridor through the mountains used by local routes like Sand Pass Rd and the Weis Hwy. This desert environment is characterized by its isolation and limited water resources, evidenced by the solitary Roadside Reservoir positioned along the northern highway. The stark division between the mountain range and the surrounding basins highlights the classic basin and range topography typical of the West Desert, serving as a critical reference for understanding the transit and grazing patterns of this arid region.
