2023 Map of Scarecrow Peak

About this map

Scarecrow Peak dominates this high-desert landscape on the border of Utah and Nevada, where the drainage systems of the eastern Great Basin create a complex network of dry washes and canyons. The terrain is defined by the Tule Springs Hills and the broad, elevated flats of the Terry Benches, showing a landscape shaped by intermittent water flow through Snow Spring Wash and Beaver Dam Wash. The scarcity of developed infrastructure is reflected in the single named thoroughfare, Little Little Ranch Rd, which provides access to the rugged southeastern reaches near Little Bull Valley Wash. This map illustrates the intersection of Lincoln County, Nevada, and Washington County, Utah, capturing the remote character of the boundary where Indian Canyon and Horse Canyon cut through the high ridges.
