2017 Map of South of Keller Well

About this map

The Newfoundland Mountains rise out of the northwestern corner of this territory, providing the only significant topographic relief in an otherwise flat expanse of the Great Salt Lake Desert. This arid environment in Tooele County is defined by its extreme isolation and the presence of the Newfoundland Evaporation Basin, a feature reflecting the unique hydrological and industrial history of the region. The map captures the stark intersection of high desert peaks and the expansive salt flats, showing the township and range lines that divide this remote segment of the Great Basin into a geometric grid. This survey serves as a clear record of the physical geography and land management boundaries within a landscape largely devoid of human settlements or improved roads.
