2020 Map of Sawtooth Peak

About this map

Sawtooth Peak and the high ridges of The Needles define this high-elevation corner of Beaver County. The terrain is characterized by steep contours and isolated water sources, essential for survival in the arid West. Vital springs including Pots Sum Pa Spring, Mud Spring, and Willow Spring are dispersed throughout the hills, suggesting the importance of these points for range management and wildlife. The eastern portion of the map transitions into the relatively level floor of Pine Valley, where drainage systems like Jackson Wash and Turkey Wash collect runoff from the surrounding peaks. To the south, the distinctive landform of Elephant Back stands near the main summit, providing a clear reference point for navigation through the remote basin and range landscape.
