1983 Map of Sheep Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Sheep Mountain dominates the northern horizon of this landscape in Box Elder County, where the high ground gives way to the expansive reaches of the Mud Flat. This 1983 edition, based on earlier photogrammetric methods and field checks, highlights a transition from desert peaks to the vast, level surfaces of the Great Salt Lake Desert region. Human activity is sparse on this terrain, primarily marked by a lone Jeep Trail that skirts the eastern edge of the quadrangle. The map is a study in topographic extremes, capturing the precise contouring of the mountain's slopes against the seemingly featureless white space of the surrounding flats, documenting a corner of the Great Basin as it remained in the early 1980s.
