2020 Map of Silver Island Pass

About this map

Silver Island Pass serves as a critical topographic gap between the arid stretches of the Great Salt Lake Desert and the rising peaks of the Silver Island Mountains. This high-desert landscape in Tooele County is characterized by its stark drainages, most notably Pilot Cr, which cuts through the basin floor. The map highlights a remote network of unpaved tracks, including Fenceline Rd and Campbell Rd, reflecting the land's contemporary use for range management and access across the salt flats. The transition from the flat, low-elevation desert floor to the complex contours of the mountain pass reveals the stark geological isolation of this corner of the Great Basin.
